    if Musk’s got a high intellect-quotient, that’s fine…

    What does it measure?

    A very-specific subset of intelligences, crafted to leave-out female relational-intelligences, musical-intelligence, health-intelligence, among other ones…

    https://www.amazon.com/Seven-Kinds-Smart-Identifying-Intelligences/dp/0452281377/

    identifies 9 intelligences, & I defy most Mensa-types to consistently score high on those other ones…

    It is the IQ lobby which won’t tolerate the other-intelligences to be counted equally-valid, right?

    With reason: they aren’t good at those intelligences.

    ( hint: musical-intelligence includes multiple sub-intelligences, including, but not limited-to…

    • rhythm
    • harmony
    • melody
    • improv/jazz
    • composition
    • polyrhythm
    • etc…

    A person can have a “musical intelligence” of whatever, & be brilliant in rhythm, but lousy in harmony, xor vice versa.

    Too-coarse-granularity’s consistently a problem with these damn measures : )
