Is that considered genius high iq? I dunno. I remember a kid I used to make do my homework said in gifted you had to be able to solve it fast af . And put puzzles together in seconds.

You used trial and error and found ways to leave parts of the cube fixed. You don't understand what problem you were actually solving, which is my point. If I gave you a puzzle based on a different group, rather than the Rubik's cube group, and you couldn't manipulate it in 3D, would you be able to solve it? Do you understand the problem you solved and can you generalize it? No. You used trial and error to find elements that leave parts of the cube fixed and then used that to solve it.

A dog can solve a calculus of variations problem when it fetches a ball from the water. Does it understand calculus of variations? No.

In any case, you're entitled to your opinion. It doesn't change the situation.

I can, but only cause I was taught how. Never figured it out on my own.

But yet.... it got solved. Sounds like all's well that end's well wincel.
It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.
