>caste of European professionals (engineers, doctors, etc.) that has not degraded since circa 1900
It actually has, but not in a way you'd expect. There is certainly some progress still, and even some innovation, but not to the extent of 19th century. And it is progressively worsening, the caste of European professionals you're refering to do not reproduce, or do not reproduce at the same rate as the lower, working class. When this happens for an extended period of time, we get less geniuses and highly intelligent people.

What's more interesting is how the class fertility changes, creativity and innovation per capita correlate strongly with simple reaction times, color discrimination, use of high-difficulty words, backward digit span, spatial perception and more (all very good proxies for general intelligence, and some of them, such as SRT are measured since 1800s).
