Nobody is born cracked.

You become cracked.

You gain knowledge/skills that make you cracked.

Sure, it takes more work for some people than others, but that’s not what becoming cracked is about.

Yes, IQ is a thing, which is one reason why I said some people have to work harder than others to acquire “cracked” skills.

But what’s inherited is not the cracked knowledge/skills itself but rather an ability to more rapidly acquire/retain/generalize said knowledge/skills.

Plenty of cognitively advantaged people fail to become cracked because they don’t put the work in.
