This is a straw man. My original point (root level comment) was that the authors of this plan do not believe there are any innate differences in math ability, full stop. A reply to my comment supported my position by showing that obviously there are examples of people who are extreme outliers in terms of math ability. This proves the point that there are differences in innate math ability.
Your reply is that we shouldn't design a state-wide math program for extreme outliers. But no one said we should! We only said that we should design a math program that acknowledges a diversity in innate math ability (as proven by the existence of extreme outliers, and the many, many less extreme outliers).
