i don't understand why you are writing "see him", there is a standard test for it, it's not a matter of opinion. And in the Einstein example i just made the point that "he was a genius and still fell for socialism." i also don't see why outcomes should be relevant in this question.

😅 I can’t tell if you’re taking the piss? You previously said he wasn’t a genius? So as far as I’m aware IQ is a measure of cognitive capacity (no mention of genius). And ‘Genius’ is a label we give in retrospect, not a measurable trait. (That’s why I said “see him”.) They are the definitions I adhere to. I agree one can be a genius (Einstein E = mc²) and make bad choices, that’s innately human.
