Suppose you are a smart person, and someone developed a drug that makes anyone who takes it 30 IQ points smarter. The FDA rules that this drug can be given only to people with an IQ at least 20 points below yours.
Would you be happy about this development?
IQ is relative, so once they took the drug and everyone retested, my new IQ would make me eligible for the drug :-)
And we'd end up making the whole population infinitely smart :-)
