However, biological traits and abilities != career ability. Even more so since these are average indexes with vast overlap between groups.
On what basis do you think that preferences and abilities are two mutually exclusive traits?
We know interest is influenced heavily by environment. We also know that ability is influenced by both interest and environment. Carol Dweck's work is a good source for this type of study.
It also seems intuitive that ability influences interests, although I'm actually not aware of what studies exist in that area.
I don't think you're standing on as solid footing as you think when you're making accusations of others conflating topics.
Just because interests and abilities influence each other does not mean they are not exclusive. You can do a lot of things that you probably have never even considered before too.
Many women believe they're statistically more intelligent than men and less violent, by fate of biology.
