>The categorizations seem to be applied more for their utility in talking about different populations rather than any consistent criteria.
What's the criteria for utility though ? What's the use of dividing wolves into 38 subspecies ?
As for the racist ideologies it's a matter of politics. Anti-racist ideologies have negative utility for white people.

That number of genes is sufficient.

>Morphology is not always a good indicator of taxa.
By any chance can you give me a few examples of species with morphological differences between geographically separate populations, that are not classified into subspecies ?

The reason doesn't matter.
It remains that they're more related than humans groups but classified as subspecies when humans are not.
