The problem is there is too much focus on rationality and not enough on intuition. One level below g (IQ), is senses and perceptions, where a lot of intelligence is missed on IQ tests. Factors like associative memory, and computational fluency, that are component to intuition. Rationality, is essentially IQ minus any intuitive component. Intuition is important as it allows us to recognize repetition and apply relevant strategies or integrate relevant information when working on subproblems, so that when they are thinking in complex fields, we are minimizing the cognitive load, which can be conserved for more critical periods of thinking (with IQ) about elements of a larger problem. And in certain problem classes, intuition is a very powerful empirical tool, that allows to sift through, select, and arrange bits of distant information, based on underlying structural repetition - this allows for the 'generation' (as in intelli-gence), of a novel set ( a novel set is a free selection of associations, for example: 3, tree, tee). These sets can later be analyzed (with IQ), and new information extracted. That's why intuition deserves just as much attention as rationality. The system is getting more biased in favor of IQ, not less biased. And these rationalists, like Maggie Toplak, just use the exceptional cases, where intuition happens to fail. In most instances in life, and when thinking subconsiously about highly complex topics, intuition is a prerequisite, for the generation of new and useful ideas.
