Actually, it takes far more intelligence for a dolphin
to rationalize all of that, to plot and plan their strategy,
than it takes you Effete, to type 'Duh'...

Ergo, dolphins likely more intelligent than EffetePoser.

Shocker!

This is nothing new. Fishermen quickly discovered the simbiotic nature of this relationship. Dolphins did too. It happens among less intelligent animals too. "Cleaning stations" are a thing in the wild.
