I'd like to point out that if one person's IQ score is higher than another person's IQ score, that doesn't make the higher IQ person a "superior" human. It does mean that they have a superior (higher in rank) IQ score. But no single trait superiority makes a superior human.

Yeah. I've known so many lower IQ people I would much rather have in my life - that contribute much better to joy and human flourishing - than some high high IQ people.
Especially when IQ is used as a crutch for other personality shortcomings. People want to be accepted regardless of how they act and I think a lot of people think that IQ is the way to do that.

My wife is heavily dyslexic ergo ‘low IQ’ yet ferociously bright and way more savvy than me (IQ 140). Of course she is a superior being.
