IQ testing is not how anyone measures intelligence and hasn't been for quite some time.
I suspect the problem lies here: Intelligence requires a multi-part definition, to use your analogy, much like swimming.
Swimming is defined as the action of moving oneself through water using your limbs.
An intelligence definition should include the ability to extrapolate, comprehend and innovate information accurately as far as we can understand the world. The more precisely one can do this and the more depth of knowledge one has the more intelligent one is.
A tricky thing to define.
