In my perspective IQ only has so many consequences, due to the limitations of the method. Nowadays we know to separate different forms of intelligence and also that transferring skills between those forms can have an impact on overall 'performance' . That being said, it can be a good indicator for stuff but as you point out, it's often misused as divider instead of an accelerator.
