You originally claimed that "quite possible that there are other deficits" that Asians suffer. Glad we have established that is unlikely. If I wanted to address the "challenges" of the underprivileged, I'd simply give a preference to those who can demonstrate it. This is not currently politically favored because even highly privileged blacks underperform poor whites and Asians. (I can dig up stats on that if you like.) No need to use race as a bad proxy when you can actually measure the underlying variable you claim to care about.
