Why is enthusiasm often perceived as naivety?

If someone is excited about their work, is there often an assumption they must not understand what is involved?
If someone is enthusiastic about their life, there seems to often be an attached assumption that things are easy for them.
If someone is happy, why are they often assumed to be shallow, insincere, or unintelligent?
Are these just shortcuts? Do they hold up for the majority of enthusiastic or happy people in your life? What makes it seem more likely that someone who is shallow or stupid would be able to be happy?
