the brain size pill is brutal

there is no nuance

I thought you were smart, or are you just trolling? Within the same species, brain size relative to body size has the strongest correlation with what we currently perceive as intelligence, but this correlation is still relatively weak- moderate, meaning that there are many other factors contributing to intelligence.

Yeah, I almost completely disagree with that, but anyway, why even worry about it? With a head that big, chances are your brain’s pretty big too.

No lol
If you head is very big, you are just normal

Too small, too big = bad genetics , not brain size

We're not talking about extreme cases here, but within the normal physiological range, a larger head correlates with a larger brain. That’s well established.

And while brain size isn't everything like Op seems to believe, it does show a moderate correlation with cognitive performance.

So yes, having a larger brain can provide a potential cognitive advantage, even if it's just one of many factors.
His case has nothing to do with abnormal conditions like microcephaly or macrocephaly.
