When I hear "genetic diversity" I naturally expect this to manifest in a population physically. If we're talking about genetics that contribute to unseen variation, then that should be explicitly stated. Compared to Caucasoids, sub-Saharans have much less phenotypical diversity.

That's just height and slight epicanthic folds. I'm talking about craniofacial morphology, hair texture, hair and eye colour, etc. We find the most diversity of that variety among whites.

Wolves have more genetic diversity than dogs, yet dogs have more phenotypic diversity. You are missing a crucial understanding of how certain dominant alleles can mask other ones. Inbreeding in European populations is responsible for much of the variation you point to...

It doesn't make any sense at all. Genetics is really fucked up.

Yes. The natural world defies easy categorization and cares little about human preferences for tidy boundaries

Nevertheless, the "more genetic diversity within groups than between them" is a canard. More spread in a cluster doesn't mean it's not easily distinguishable and substantially different from another narrower cluster.

How so? The canard that there is more variation within race than between is true. Even Edwards 2003 in his response to Lewontin 1972 agreed with this notion.

Sorry, I used the wrong word. I meant red herring.
