Fair enough.

Are you not going to buy the "IQ as general knowledge in addition to raw brain capacity" explanation? That is, are you going to *require* that it be some sort of upgrade or genetic template to have an IQ over 13?
Knowledge is covered by skills. IQ is how much brainpower you have, how creative you are, how good your memory is, how focused and perceptive you are, et cetera.

I could see the habit of nootropic drug use in children amongst the Duncanites justifying another point of IQ and possibly a disad like Flashbacks, though.
