I'm going to serious post this for a moment:
Pretty privilege is a thing. I think just as much as the racial (and other) biases this could complicate the pretty privilege problem. I'm a short, bald, older dude who is a 4 out of 10 physically on a good day. I know I've been turned down for promotions and shit simply because other people are way more attractive than me and frankly people just want to be around attractive people. I have always made less than my peers. It is what it is. My fear is that these stupid fucking metrics are going to go full fucking incel mode and start measuring negative canthal tilt and shit like that to really lock that in. This hearkens back to the argument on social media that there is a demand by wealthy couples for "ugly nannies" and my argument was for pretty people to sit the fuck out on this one. Let the ugly women have this one fucking thing. Anyways, that's my rant as an ugly dude I can literally only see this as another huge hit for my fellow uggos.
it will push both, of that i have no doubt
like if you are a white person with traits that typically are more often seen on nonwhite people it will absolutely affect you, too as well as other traits like asymmetry and so on, mark my words
like its totally going to fuck me because despite being 100% descended from peoples in central europe i could pass as a pale dude born in inner mongolia, eye shape and all
