    IQ is the dynamic reasoning intelligence. It should sample physical experience, not poison-ivy-league knowledge. Potential and compassion is intelligence, independent of age. An exam that questions specialist knowledge, not a reasoning, is non-IQ. However, the exam may provide the knowledge/data, then measure the subject's extrapolation as a measure of IQ.

    Right, nothing new, and often done on the farm. Beef has always been tagged, either a scar on the arse, a tag on the ear, or a coil-chip under the skin. We've always known from where the cow came, and its parents from a century before, unless a neighbor's bull broke a fence to score some hindside. Extra tracking will likely help whoever manages the database, as a commercial enterprise, but of little improvement other than prosecution.
