Sure.

What makes you think that the hair stylist doesn't have a lot of "innate talent" that just never presented itself due to environment and circumstance?

Fine. It’s not even a concession to say that people are a mix of nature and nurture. But people assume that saying there exists such bell curve for intelligence is the same thing as saying that people’s worth is on a bell curve, and no one is suggesting that (or at least I’m not).

It’s ok to say that there exists natural differences between people.
