    none of the things you just listed are physical traits that race depends on. it’s purely based on perceived phenotype

      Right, but because most of humanity has been mostly reproductively isolated from each other for most of history there is a correlation between expressed phenotype in the handful of things that we think of as “race” and a boatload of other assorted genetically linked things.

      Like how dogs with certain eye colors are more likely to go deaf.
