Something like educational attainment is obviously embedded in a particular cultural context. What they are actually saying is these SNPs explain X% of the variation in attainment in a particular system where things are taught a certain way and success is measured by exams, and you need to be good at algebra and sitting still for long periods. You can’t treat it as a universal feature of humanity. Also the education system will look very different in 30 years, who is to say your results are stable? This issue of outcome measures in social genomics seems insurmountable to me.
