True, but also sort of unrelated to the topic at hand. (?)

This is a true but very weird thing to bring into the thread.

Humans create and pass along culture, but we also have the capacity for reasoning about ethics, justice, etc. When we say animals are also very intelligent etc. with a couple of examples, it is worth contextualizing the edges or shortcomings of the intelligence on the gradient.

Zooming out and looking down on the intelligence spectrum, we have to be humble and concede that we, too, while far superior to other living creatures we have encountered so far, probably also lack some dimensions that even higher intelligence would unlock.
