EQ isn't real

Nice argument there.

Just replace EQ with "how well you can process and control your emotions" if you're so triggered by the term.

Except that's not what "EQ", the pop-science concept with no real basis in reality, means.

It's exactly what it means, though it expands to the scope of other's emotions too.

Either way, it's a convenient way to refer to how well one tags & processes emotions.

High IQ = smart

High EQ = stable

Nonsense, it's more just a synonym for the "agreeability" trait. Has nothing to do with self control or stability.
