The difference between having a child with an IQ 55 vs IQ 145 partner already gives you more than 15 IQ points in your child on average.
The supply of IQ-145 partners is limited. That aside, I don't think I understand your point.
By using partner selection you can already greatly increase the expected IQ of your children (worked for me!), so it shouldn't surprise us that other methods will also work to do this. The supply of sperm from IQ>145 men isn't all that limited.
That amounts to claiming h²=1/3, which is awfully low.
