This conversation was fantastic. I get Lex. He wants the increase in intelligence to be accessible in the same way lifting weights can help you access muscle mass. Apparently it is  not quite that simple. If you are genetically predisposed to be 145 pounds as an adult male no amount of work or drugs will make it possible for you to play in the NFL or be a professional body builder. With years and years of hard work could probably be 185 pounds and have a respectable physique. If you have a 90 IQ and dedicate your life to mathematics you may be able to achieve a 75% in college level algebra.  But maybe not. Life is full of limits. To deny them or act like they do not exist seems silly and unproductive.
