An interesting though experiment: what if a paper had instead come out showing that confounds led to a 2-5x *underestimate* of the heritability of social outcomes like income and education? What would the title of the paper be? How would it be covered by geneticists and the press?

I know it's a rough time to be talking science, but in case anyone wants some distraction, I wrote about the Tan et al (2024) analysis of heritability and polygenic indices for complex human behavior. Title: Is Tan et al The End of Social Science Genomics?
