Emotional Intelligence has nothing to do with actual intelligence and I feel like the moment people see the word "intelligence" they just get triggered into thinking someone's calling them stupid. Coincidentally this makes the reaction to even mentioning Emotional Intelligence a litmus test for whether or not a person has a high degree of emotional intelligence.
It's not /r/iamverysmart territory because intelligence has nothing to do with emotional intelligence, it's two separate things with separate definitions.
Chernobyl has a very intensely dreadful atmosphere that it achieves extremely well that allows the viewer to almost over-empathize with the anxiety, uncertainty, and frustration depicted in the show.
I guess to someone with low emotional intelligence they would equate that to scary or frightening, but I don't think it's the same.
Scary would be giving the viewer something to be afraid of, whether that's fictional or not, it leaves the viewer actually afraid of something. And maybe you could argue that the series makes you afraid of radiation, but I mean if anyone knows about nuclear bombs or have gotten an X-Ray, they know all the precautions taken around that(the lead aprons, and doctors behind a wall) really people should already have a healthy respect for radiation anyways.

Maybe this is the shit they should focus on to get money for pensions instead of raising the retiring age.
