Excellent, this would make it possible to evaluate the connection between IQ and "RQ" further and to determine the payoff to rationality, especially to determine how rational rationality is.

Indeed. As autistics and social intelligence was brought up earlier, maybe one also could find correlation between RQ and emotional quotient and RQ and social intelligence. It would definitely to be interesting to see if highly rational people do better in negotiation and understanding others.
