>>11762247So, you are pointing to a big stark phenotype difference. Going to the moon and inventing rocketry stuff is a kind of phenotype.
But genetic diversity is differences in genes, and genotype diversity isnt the same as phenotype diversity. Genetic diversity is roughly a measurement of how long two populations have been separated, but its not a measure of how different they are in their phenotypical characteristics.
Like, for most of human history, it was just humans and human-like animals running around like cavemen. I suppose in many ways they were all quite similar. But because they all lived so separately for so long the genetic diversity among them was quite high. There were more distinct gene pools, and those gene pools had more unique gene variants.
