gollark: But a lot of it is environmental, and if you have 73 children they probably won't all get the necessary attention.
gollark: You could say that about most people.
gollark: Or, well, very genetic.
gollark: Also, <@341618941317349376>, just because intelligence is somewhat *heritable*, doesn't mean it's *genetic*.
