You just shifted all the meaning to the word "optimal".
Optimal when maximizing for what?
No I did not.
If James_Miller meant 'genetic basis of intelligence' (and I think he did) then I am pointing out that that may not be predictive of actual intelligence when measured in the real world after development. You could just as well say I'm 'optimizing for intelligence'. I am simply making it clear that I'm not optimizing for at-birth intelligence.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
