    What do you mean when you say that I’m “overestimating”? I’m asking this because I feel like you’re thinking that I’m claiming something I don’t think I’m claiming.

      Well, you claimed that children of parents with higher IQ have more successful children.

      I pointed out that this is largely due to social factors, to which you replied a non sequitur about how intelligence has a genetic component.

      From that, a reasonable person would assume that you believe that genetics is a major component of IQ, and not just a small contributing factor.
