Which is what SM is not doing. No matter how hard you try to frame it that way

How is he not judging when he is saying certain people have lower IQs and smaller brains just because of their skin color?

Of course not, skin colour is a characteristic of the individual, and you cannot judge individuals by group averages.

Yes! So what is the ultimate point -- the practical application at the level of the individual -- of pursuing the racial IQ argument?

Understanding that seeing less of a group with lower IQ in a high intellect field is likely not a sign of racism in the field, or that trying to push particular groups en masse into environments most won't do well in will not get positive results.

That would indeed be a helpful application, if there were equality of opportunity. But there isn't. So, at best, racial IQ serves as a partial explanation at the group level, and remains useless at the individual level.

Currently the available evidence suggests that programs like affirmative action have a net negative impact on black graduation rates. Trying to artificially balance the playing field through state intervention never works.
