A growing First World will mean

E.g. Romania joins the first world, or Germany grows its economy?

However, one could probably identify genomes better than Einstein’s, both because these technologies would let genomes be combined that had unheard of, vastly statistically unlikely amounts of luck, and because e.g. there are likely genomes out there that are substantially better than Einstein (but on folks who had worse environmental luck).

We have every reason to believe that humans' maximum potential intelligence is greater than any achieved by anyone in the past, be it Archimedes, Einstein, or anyone else.

Because academic achievement is the result of many biological, environmental, social, and other factors, those we can identify as having had the most outstandingly productive and creative minds were likely not as smart as some members of the vast majority of humanity that had no opportunity to noticeably intellectually distinguish itself.

Much more importantly, the vast majority of possible combinations of human alleles have never been combined [some preposition or phrase] a person. As scientists learn more and more about different combinations of alleles and their effects on intelligence, diligence, and other traits, they will be able to make combinations of alleles that would have been extremely unlikely to have ever occurred in nature.
