Is It really that Useful?

I read this book Outliers- Great book BTW- and the author was trying to prove that genius cannot be measured by IQ tests alone. There was this activity where a group of kids had to write down as many uses for certain objects as they could think of in a designated amount of time to figure out how creative and aware a person is.

In the divergence test the genius had the most common uses. Nothing creative.

Take this test before scrolling down.Write down as many uses for a Brick and a Blanket as you can think of in one minute. No peeking.
