And the 'less bright' kids get to work in factories or pick up poop for a living. Great stuff

Horses for courses. Let the bright kids push on and run the country/business, be inventors .........
So what you're saying is you want to determine whether someone gets to become a toilet cleaner or an 'inventor' based on an arbitrary test at age 11.
