I think you're flattering yourself a bit if you believe that being able to solve a CAPTCHA means you have an unusually high IQ

You've never spent much time around lower IQ people, I take it. The type of people who drive trucks, or bag groceries, and will never be able to do more than that. Good people, most of them, of course. But allergic to logical, deliberate thought, and barely capable of it when they try. Not everyone can do basic math, and many of those who can't, have no problem booking a hotel.
These CAPTCHAs require more thought than the platform otherwise does, therefore it will gate some people from using the platform.
