The US military routinely tests recruits for IQ and assigns roles appropriate to that level. They even outright reject some people for being too stupid. Nobody seems to be up in arms about it, why? We also already do all sorts of soft eugenics in our own lives, from assortative mating to academic scores and schools one attends, social circles that one enters because of their achievements and so on. At some point it will become a lot more quantitive, to reduce the currently large factor of luck. Societies that refuse to take advantage of optimizations this could bring will eventually lose out, for better or worse, this is entirely inevitable. The progress of technology is not always progressive. There is a reason most of sci-fi reads downright dystopian.
