Most people overestimate their own awareness.
Oh, now that's a different thing. IQ doesn't generally measure that.
Would you be happier if I said 105 is close to 99.
No. I'd be happier if you said 105 is close to 100. "Close to below" is useless. "Close to the boundary between above and below" is slightly less useless. "Close to average" is more useful, because it's both a useful value and not misrepresented.
And a better name would be something like "pedant4norealpurpose" because it has a 4 in it.

No, it support my premise that most people are stupider than you may think.
I didn't say "close to below". I said close to stupider.
I can't believe we're dissecting and debating a pun.
I'm done.

Recognizing you need self-improvement doesn't mean you've improved. But at least it's a first step.
