Or maybe they will use that data to discover that IQ scores are noticably lower in the community and surrounding areas where an open-pit mining operation is leaching toxins into the water? Or maybe the data is used to determine the most effective public policy interventions to assist communities where scores are lower? The first step in addressing a problem is to recognize than in issue exists in the first place. Whether we measure them or not, differences in intelligence will continue to exist, and that will lead to disparate socioeconomic outcomes.

One research group may do that, while another weaponizes the data instead. One doesn't cancel out the other.
