Flynn effect or not (and the evidence supporting the Flynn effect is weak at best), most people are not exceptional.
Even if the average is rising, the average is still the average. Only people far above average are "exceptional", even if the average person of today would be considered "exceptional" 100 years ago.
The normal distribution curve may (or may not) be sliding along the scale, but its shape doesn't change.
