> my point never depended on 100% of the participants being right 100% of the questions

You told someone that their reasoning is so bad they should get checked by a doctor. Because they didn't find the test easy, even though it averages 60% score per person. You've been a dick to them while significantly misrepresenting the numbers - just stop digging.

The second test scores 60%, the first was way higher. And I specifically said ""unless you are saying "I could not grasp it immediately but later I was able to after understanding the point" I think you and your friends should see a neurologist"", to which this person did not responded. I saw the tests, solved some, I suspect the variability here is more a question of methodology than an inherent problem for those people. I also never stated that my point depended on those people scoring 100% specifically on the tests, even if it is in fact extremely easy (and it is, the objective of this test is to literally make tests that most humans could easily beat but that would be hard for an AI) variability will still exist and people with different perceptions would skew the results, this is expected. "Significantly misrepresenting the numbers" is also a stretch, I only mentioned the numbers ONE time in my point, most of it was about that inherent nature (or at least, the intended nature) of the tests.

So on the edge, if he was not able to understand them at all, and this was not just a problem of grasping the problem, my point was that this would possibly indicate a neurological problem, or developmental, due to the nature of them. It's not a question of "you need to get all of them right", his point was that he was unable to understand them at all, that it confused them to an understanding level.
