If he was rational, he would understand that companies like this have a huge incentive to inflate the score of anyone participating.

If he had got an 87, do you think that he would have posted his score?

Absolutely not, then the company would not get free advertising, costing them business.

I don't believe it is fully fake, but I would not be surprised to see them rounding up any edge cases, this goes for the entire industry

For all the posturing some people you meet in daily life do about "being smart", I think most of us are pretty damn average. Most people still have the capacity to accomplish anything they want (within reason) if they're willing to put in enough time and effort on a consistent basis.

That's true. Like, by definition.

Has more to do with the distribution than the definition. If everyone were either a moron or genius, nobody would be average without changing the definition.
