Are you trying to make some kind of analogy to humans being limited to a certain skill set because of genetics? I hope I just reading too much into your reply to this thread.

Are you implying that every human can do everything equally well? Talent is a thing. I wouldn't beat Usain Bolt no matter how much I trained.

No, but I'm not implying that you can't train up to the 95% percentile. Not every dog can be Balthazar[1], but almost every single dog can be trained to sit. Not every human can be Albert Einstein, but almost every single one of them can learn Calculus.

Of course I am. Do you think anyone can be a great basketball player?

Trying to pretend that all races are "the same" is blindness.
