Napoleon complex 

Mark Van Vugt found evidence that when short males received clues that they were physically outcompete by other males, that a Napoleon complex tended to kick in. If that were true, couldn't a guy with a Napoleon complex just destroy the evidence of it by trying to outcompete another male opponent the same way? And wouldn't that make everything a little bit darker and more difficult to determine who had a Napoleon Complex and who didn't (male or female, since his study wasn't conducted on females) ?
Napoleon Complex is two words anybody can choose to describe anybody else with, regardless of their physical size, strength, ability, intelligence, or any other attribute. I can do it, you can do it, it's just talk.
