IQ is informative as low levels, but not at high levels.

This explanation seems plausible if you add noise to it, since it matches up with IQ vs SAT (SAT used as proxy for actual intelligence here).

The problem is that you get the same result by taking a linear correlation (i.e. assume IQ accurately measures intelligence at all levels) and noising that up.
