    I think you’re being too generous. What they wanted to say is “There are genetic traits associated with intelligence.” However, not inserting probability distributions in every fucking sentence is a class 2 misdemeanor in Rat circles, hence what was written.

      There are genetic traits associated with intelligence.

      Which is obviously true, since the genetic traits of BEING A HUMAN quite strongly correlate with intelligence.

      There’s no way to say the quiet part without saying it out loud here!
