That doesn't explain why Mongols or Inuits don't score that high on IQ tests, they live in an even harsher climate than Japanese.



Also what about groups that lived in the desert for thousands of years, that's also a harsh environment just like cold.

I fully agree,

desert arabs live in hostile environment and yet have low IQ



There are many modes of how higher IQ developed and simply using climate is stupid



I can make a case that any caste with a high g loaded occupation was selectively forced upward in IQ

This includes for example vishwakarma castes

Even leather workers and weavers needed a skill that is g related



There is a book called 'Farewell to Alms'



They have documented in western Europe, until 1900, there was no charity to the poor

The poor died out and each generation the middle class slipped into the ranks of the working class

and the working class slowly went extinct

Meaning each generation the lower IQ segment was ruthlessly pruned
