>Practical intelligence is clearly multidimensional
I wouldn't call that clear at all! Of course no matter how intelligent a person is, there will be environments in which they do poorly. Feynman would do poorly in the environment called, "Everyone find Feynman and beat him up". But that environment is very contrived, or, more formally, has a high Kolmogorov complexity.
Legg and Hutter argue quite strongly for single-dimensional practical intelligence in this paper (I don't agree with their reasoning, but the point is that it's definitely not blatantly "clear" that practical intelligence is multidimensional): https://arxiv.org/pdf/0712.3329.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/0712.3329.pdf
