Ironically, we have subsequently determined that one can determine race by fingerprint fairly well.

Just reading the abstract, they talk about ancestry and say "Logistic regression was used to classify individuals into groups." Also, I thought conventional ideas of 'race' had little scientific basis. Does the study really say anything about race or is it about ancestry?
It's not about race but ancestry. Race has no scientific basis.
?? Keep dreaming.
It takes a special sort of confusion to think race and ancestry are unrelated.
