Average IQ of Libya is 83, yet has 30-39% consanguineous marriages. Morocco is less at 82, yet has less consanguineous marriages at 10-19%. It might not actually be making that big of a difference in their average IQ, or these IQ estimations are wrong. https://new-iq-test.com/libya-average-iq.html

I think the likely explanation here is that Moroccans have more sub-Saharan admixture than Libyans, and that this outweighs the difference in cousin marriage.
