And please don't tell me the sister is smarter than Stark...they just say she is without actually showing it. Not a good way to develop a character, but then again, the movie wasn't about her.
Not saying she is smarter than him, but she's the head of research and development for the entire nation. She's at least partially responsible for the creation of the suit, and given that it's practically invulnerable, speaks a lot to how smart she is.
She also has access to almost limitless Vibranium, combined with a legacy of technology innovation...so creating a suit like that is impressive, but not that impressive. Don't forget that Black Panther's agility comes from the flower, not the suit, so the suit is just protection, not a battle suit like Iron Man's. She is a smart girl for sure though.
Imagine what Stark can do with limitless access to Vibranium. Stark's Arc Reactor (build in a cave...with a box of scraps...) is a technical marvel and his creation of Jarvis, Ultron (MCU) and his Suits are on a different level.
What I like about Stark's development as a genius is that they show how he built everything from scratch and tested it over and over again until he got it right. Shuri is like...here's a smart girl...just believe us.
