I would prefer the most competent engineers which does tend to correlate strongly with IQ however I'm not designing dykes.
On the internet your IQ is meaningless.
The validity of an idea is not dependent on the IQ of the person presenting it.
Me claiming to have an IQ of X neither improves or diminishes the validity of arguments presented.
Back to your example. If a retard told you there was a crack in the dyke would you ignore them because they're retarded?
I'm not certain what the thrust of your questioning is or what your motivation is?
Seems like you're trying to convince me that countries like Pakistan with serious inbreeding problems resulting in sub-100 IQ average are just as capable as countries with a high median IQ?
No, I said my IQ was not important in response to OP (because on the internet frankly its not either my ideas are good or they're bad). You then jumped into left field about rapefugees. Bragging about your IQ on the internet is dumb. Yes IQ is important in real life which was explained in my comment as IQ correlates to professional ability. On the internet however it's meaningless.
