Well if you're pointing out these stats, I have to question your motive, because they're pretty piss-poor stats to try and point out because of the context they exist in that explain the observation. Both of the things yous listed have very good contextual explanations, Science being a boys club, IQ tests having cultural bias', interbreeding with Neanderthal and Denisovans after the exit from Africa. Basically those stats are BS that are used to push a narrative supported by the people in society that are such losers they don't have anything to actually be proud of so make up BS to feel better about how bad they are at being a human.
