It can when applied to other sorts of things. It doesn't have an inherent positive or negative connotation. It is just descriptive. Like, given whatever your metrics are, some things are elite and some things are trash. Its a fuzzy definition that doesn't have an exact percentile match, but it is a useful term still...sometimes.

Like id you're differentiating professional atheletes by skill set, one may be elite in one thing and average in another while a different athlete is the opposite. Its also important in team-building concepts. Ideally, people have their best attributes that complement each other instead of stacking their worst attributes.
