    And what if I called a rose a stinkweed?

    I think itā€™s a completely valid criticism, and I agree with the critism.

    I just think semantic hang-ups are reallyā€¦ Exhausting and of minimal value. Terrible ratio.

    Extend the principle of charity, hurdle it, then get to the meat.

      My issue is not with its name!

      The companies still are trying to sell IQ test off as objective measurement of intelligence and overwhelming measurement of the population believes it to be so!

          I am really not sure what you are trying to say, sorry!

          But the test were invented in the 1800-s by a French dude for preschool kids to see who requires more attention for their development?
