    Conversely be on guard against people that say this proves any particular population, especially based on specific phenotypes, is inherently more or less intelligent than any other. They most likely also have an ideological axe to grind.

    That besides the fact that, as another commenter mentioned “intelligence” is a pretty nebulous term to begin with.

      This exactly. Intelligence being heritable does not imply that any one particular population is more intelligent on average than another.

      “intelligence” is a pretty nebulous term to begin with

      This is also accurate, but I’m glossing over that because it’s late and that fact is only tangentially relevant to the question.
