caused by better motor skills than vsi and vice versa(Im too lazy to link the papers ask if you need them)
Interpersonal isn't fully mogged by intrapersonal "everything stems from yourself" self-knowledge helps empathy, but interpersonal requires real-time mastery of unpredictable external cues (micro expressions, group dynamics) interpersonal people can still be socially clumsy, while many leaders excel interpersonally with average self-insight. They complement eachother, they are both very important they almost work synergistically
But BK =/= "VSI with tweaks" Gardner's theory (Shearer 2020 neuroimaging) distinguishes them VSI links to visual/parietal networks for mental manipulation whereas:
BK to somatomotor/cerebellum for embodied execution/proprioception. Dissociation exists - high BK with average VSI (feel-based dancers/climbers) and vice versa. Sport boosts VSI but doesn't reduce BK to it distinct domains
After IQ, interpersonal + bodily-kinesthetic top practical success levers no collapse
vsi is the potential you imagine motor is what you actualize
