Other traits were mental: intelligence, creativity, bravery, musical ability, idiocy. Mendelians offered rules and patterns for inheritance. 17 January 2008 Nikhil Swaminathan w:Michael Wigler Working around the Mendelians: A Q&A; with Michael Wigler https://web.archive.org/web/20140405062102/https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/working-around-the-mendelians-michael-wigler/ There were really three things: the possibility of spontaneous mutation; the possibility of rare variants that don't exist in the population for very long because they're eliminated quickly; the possibility of there being many loci that could contribute to the disorder. And those three things were generally missed, and the way the Mendelians tried to deal with this was to say: "These are complex disorders caused by the alignment of the planets;" en History of science en eponyms
