I definitely see where you're coming from. The author excluded dragonborn from the "Many Colors" section, which might lead one to believe that this is a diagram of traits that are commonly expressed in a race despite the official book descriptions. e.g. it's stereotypically common to make blue tieflings or green goblins despite the official descriptions.

So either the author is wrong for saying dragonborn don't officially come in many colors, or they're wrong for saying tieflings don't officially have tails. Either way, it's a bad diagram.

Oh thank god I wasn't the only one getting confused by it.

which might lead one to believe that this is a diagram of traits that are commonly expressed in a race despite the official book descriptions

Yeah, this is pretty much exactly it. It seemed like a chart of things people include despite the lore, which is why I was left feeling confused as shit because, well, tails on dragonborn and tieflings are lore-friendly.
