re: #91 Sergey Romanov
IQs can serve as predictors of some things (like scholastic achievement or income) but not others, like you say. It’s a naturalistic fallacy to necessarily derive worth from “natural” characteristics, such as appearance or intelligence. But both still can have their value.
I’ll add:
scholastic achievement and income are nice.
But it’s quite possible to have a full and eventful and successful life without them.
