This is a strange post, but to give the author his due, he is very restrained in interpreting it as if it means anything.

But the commenters? People, please…

The defendants at Nuremberg (n = 24!) were not some undifferentiated lump of senior Nazis. They held different offices. Which means they did different things. And committed different crimes.

And many of those offices were radically different! One (Hans Fritzsche) was a radio commentator and head of news propaganda. Another (Ernst Kaltenbrunner) was in charge of the Gestapo AND the Einsatzgruppen! Now, which do you suppose is more likely: That one was imprisoned and the other hanged because one had a lower IQ than the other? Or that one committed vastly worse crimes than the other?

I really dislike IQ-phobia but I can see why some people get a little nervous when IQ is used for analyses like these.
