You'd need to know the elasticity of intelligence and environments (5x on what scale? And does -5% really indicate outperformance on the genetics side?), which I'm not actually sure we know, and much of the 'environment' contribution is nonshared - immeasurable, random, we don't know what it is. But hypothetically, you could do slightly better by trying to measure environment & control for it, yeah.
