What Was Disappointing About Terence Tao's Masterclass

Can't really blame the master on this one. It's the person who came up with the idea of this masterclass that gets the blame.

What does the lay person want to know?

What is TT's IQ? Given that you're not of that IQ, what kinds of things can you do to make the most of your potential?

What kinds of mundane problems did TT fail to solve under high-stakes conditions, if any?

What is his diet and physical regimen like, what does he recommend? How important is it? If Alexis Lemaire needs to give his brain breaks, and Magnus Carlsen has to get on the treadmill everyday to keep his brain functioning optimally, isn't there some imperative for TT?

What do some other top mathematicians do to stay in shape?

What are some things he wishes he did differently?
