Nice answer. But actually, IQ tests are a poor in measuring extremely high intelligence. Even if you assign a number to a person I doubt if gives any worthy information. Perhaps it is about lack of comparison, increasing number of dimensions or psychometricians being not able to make a task conceptually way beyond them.

Could you be more precise? Creativity is a broad and lousily defined word. For some artistic creativity it might be the case that it is not an issue; for academic mathematics I guess that every boost in IQ is beneficial (but even there it is not the only factor). Moreover, it would be hard make a numerical estimate of one's creativity.
