Actually, it's supposed to be brain to body ratio.

However, see earlier post, the current idea is that it is neuron density rather than brain size which determines intelligence. (or it's brain cell density--it's density of some sort--going to look....).

Seems to be both general brain density (brain cells) and neuron density.

Density ~ as in “Belgium is the most densely populated country in Europe” ~ which, in French, cutely comes across as “the Belgian people are really stupid”.
