Small noses in particular are not Neotenic. It is an epigenetic adaptation to clean air. Large nostrils are for filtering particulates, that's all. The larger the particulate (sand) the longer the columella. The finer the particulate (dust) the shirter the columella. Having an affinity to sand adapted people is just a personal preference.

I have a very strong affinity for sand people, they’re just so beautiful

I am a mixed race supremacist, my kids are only going to be half white 🗿 well unless you count Iraqis as white

Perhaps, I was simply memeing.

It’s been a minute since researched racial stuff but I think some middle eastern groups are considered proto-Europeans.

Yeah they’re basically white lol

Yeah. Just making sure you know small noses are adapted to high moisture environments to avoid pneumonia, not a neotenic factor.
