They were looking at height and intelligence.
Honestly, what did they expect? They can only select from what's in the gene pool of the "father" and "mother". Sorry to sound so harsh, but when are not just the general public but scientists going to get that the grandmothers were right: if you want to have smart children or any other trait, pick a mate with those traits. End of story.
