Yup, IQ should also take into account context e.g. a math genius and music genius will do equally well in their respective fields. I think the world has also valued different types of IQs at various points in time. Philosophy and the arts were very highly valued in earlier centuries relative to today for example. Is it possible that the industrial and tech age has propelled logic IQ further to the fore?

I hadn’t thought of that historical angle and how it affects how we view intelligence. Definitely something there…
I think this will need a part two 🤔
