Is there any more universally countersignalled measure than IQ? There isn't a single person who is really smart, in any field, anywhere, who talks about their IQ. But people who are really strong actually do talk about their max in various lifts. People who are really good at golf actually do talk about their handicaps. Something about IQ is just utterly embarrassing to smart people, in a way that no other measure is to any other group of people who do well by some measure.
