There's a significant portion of all human beings who ever lived who wouldn't partake in a hypothetical. They would just respond "I don't see that door" and go away thinking your question makes no sense.

…and their votes count just as much as yours.
And that’s fine? A 130+ IQ population would be mindnumbingly boring tbh. We, as a society, need all sorts of humans - not everyone can work at FAANG. In fact, I’d go as far as to say that high IQ people aren’t significantly better at societal decision making.
What worthwhile insights can arise from someone who can't imagine a hypothetical?
That’s exactly the elitist mindset I’m talking about.
It is, but you are not really answering the question. Just calling a mindset names does not make it wrong.
The elitist mindset of expressing disgust at “low IQ” people is wrong. Please do link some sources proving the necessity of only “high IQ” populace, and how that’s sustainable as a society.
I'm not sure what connection there is between IQ and workplace.
Which workplace do you vote at?
Is this a reference to something?
