Furthermore, if my IQ were already lower by 30 points, I might feel I was off the hook, might as well take the other 30 points, be somewhere in the vicinity of normal, and enjoy a society that's more or less made for me. OTOH during a crisis every brain counts.

I've made the point that there are a lot of high IQ people getting things in this crisis incredibly wrong. To me, this is an indication that IQ is the wrong metric -- originally about the Intelligence Quotient, dividing mental age by physical age, this measure is unimportant!

And even within those categories, there may not be a single measure. Suppose there's a thing as PQ, Physical Quotient, and we wanted to measure it: is it abilities in running, jumping, weightlifting, gymnastics, swimming, whatever else we want to measure? Same may be true of IQ.
