This debate about how important intelligence rates with humans has been going on for a long time, at least back in the 1970s, when I watched scientists on the show "Firing Line" discuss it with William F. Buckley.  Buckley said it best when he replied to the scientist that most of us would love to be as smart as Einstein but not look like him or live his life.  I think the majority of us would rather be sexy, popular,  or a millionaire athlete than be the biggest brain in the room.,(reply>), Einstein was actually quite good looking in his youth.
