This attitude is generally a manifestation of self-hatred and insecurity. Smart people don't want to be special and if they do, they are normally shamed for it.
So I guess you are against entrance exams for universities, tests for doctors and engineers, and differing salaries, because they all quantify someone’s ability to learn to just “one number.”https://twitter.com/WilliamSorgII/status/1086429779103019008 …

A standardized test to get into a certain career tract is not the same as judging someone's worth to society. A 100 IQ hardworking guy who supports his family and helps his neighbor is better than a 180 IQ sociopath. Even if I grant that IQ is a good measure, it's not enough.

He's not saying it's a measure of worth, or the only measure worth using. He's saying it's important to admit that it has serious societal implications and ignoring it is foolish.
