From the local born analysis code given in the files of the paper:

"Differences are marginally larger among people not born on the farm"

Darwinian effects (which seem unlikely due to the outlined nearly identical environments) predict the opposite of this.

Didn't understand half of that. However.

The underestimation of evolutionary effects after just one generation looks to me to be one of the driving factors of the model of epigenetics. I'll paraphrase what you once wrote on the topic. "If epigenetics doesn't lead to changes in intelligence, it's fake."
