Actually dyslexics are more likely to have a higher IQ than someone of the same demographic.

is that actually because dyslexics are, on average, cleverer
or because dyslexia may be missed in someone who is also stupid?

Arf!
Good point. Perhaps stupid dyslexics never get diagnosed because either:
a) they're too stupid to spell properly even without the dyslexia
or
b) They're too stupid to spell properly but also dyslexic so it cancels out to reasonable spelling ability.
