The disconnect is that you’re equating Race, in CRT, with the Ethnicity that gets listed from an ancestry test.
From Merriam-Webster, “Today race refers to a group sharing some outward physical characteristics and some commonalities of culture and history. Ethnicity refers to markers acquired from the group with which one shares cultural, traditional, and familial bonds.”
Cultural and Historic similarities are social by nature. Italians, Greeks, and Egyptians all have periods where their histories are intertwined, but no one would claim their the same race. Irish & British fall under “white” people and have cultural similarities but are distinct on ancestry tests.
Different words mean different things.
