Environmental Talents

I'm not sure I understand the varying IQ levels for the talents. Why would FOREST require two more points than DESERT?

If the baseline 'output' is the same, shouldn't they require the same IQ?

(Plus, if the IQ prerequisites are core to the concept, it seems to me that learning the DESERT talent would be the harder option. Finding resources in a desert would be much harder than the same task in a forest.)

P.S. Just noticed Shostak asked the same question. ;)
