Is intelligent theorising important?
Are the stupider and averagely intelligent just as good as the higher intellect?

Re: Is intelligent theorising important?
I don’t exactly remember where I read it, but I recall that, for example, job success doesn't have such a close correlation with IQ, and beyond a certain threshold, salary didn’t increase further or even decreased. A successful entrepreneur, for instance, had an IQ around 110-120 or something like that.
It also showed how, in teaching, the most skilled individuals didn’t stand out much in terms of IQ, and even among university graduates, there was a wide range.
I believe intelligence isn’t useful in all areas, and being too intelligent can be just as debilitating as being too lacking in intelligence. In the end, we must keep in mind that much of communication is geared toward the average, non-specialized population.
