A biologist, specifically an evolutionary geneticist. Why on earth would we care what a philosopher thinks about a purely empirical question? Most of them don't even know what an Ancestry Informative Marker (AIM) is.

Because definitional/conceptual questions are things philosophers handle better than biologists?

This is not a purely empirical question. What is a "race" is not an empirical question.

Because we are arguing about what terms should mean. We aren't merely asking how the world is. Though I agree a philosopher who doesn't know the relevant biology and is talking about this topic is worthless.
