This is an interesting comment. I don't equal skills with value but I do recognize that people like cancer researchers, for example, can do more for the world than a cook or a management consultant. The article is about where do skills differences come from, and the answer is genes.
The article is not a roller coaster and it wasnt written this way. It is nuanced: yes, some people are smarter/more skilled than others. Yes, they deliver more value. But their lives equal that of everybody else, purely from an ethical perspective.
