It doesn't make sense to me considering the climate they live in.

That's a good question I believe has to do with evolution also the closest you get to the tropical regions of America Amerindians tend to get endomorph and shorter than northern american natives.

In the moonlit dance of evening's grace, Roma women with beauty, hearts ablaze. Eyes that glimmer like stars in night, Their laughter, a song, pure delight.
With flowing skirts and steps so light, They spin through life, a vibrant sight. Jewels that glint and hair that flows, In their presence, a garden grows.
Roma men with courage bold, Stories of their bravery told. Through trials and paths unknown, Their strength and honor brightly shown.
With hearts as wild as open skies, They face the world with fearless eyes. Protectors of their kin and kind, In every shadow, light they find.
Together in a timeless dance, Of love and life, a fierce romance. The Roma spirit, free and strong, In every heartbeat, in every song.
Through fields and forests, roads unplanned, They roam the world, a nomad band. Beautiful women, heroic men, In the Roma, life’s magic begins again.

they are a super divergent, and isolated population that can trace their roots to extremely ancient populations. It isn't like europeans that can trace our lineages to more recent mixing from indo-europeans, anatolian farmers which had alleles for lighter pigment. Hell, even mesolithic hg's are less ancient than most of the migrants into america and they were quite dark too. Often the further ancient you are, the darker the skin... so we can predict that's a large reason as to why. But pigmentation varies quite a bit on more individual level.

They definitely don't have a very dark skin, but somewhat reddish hue. I think they preserve the original condition of paleo-Eurasians

Having partial ancestry of ANE doesn't mean much when individual genes of light skin, blue eyes, blonde hair, etc...was not formed until well after the Native Americans split from Western Europeans.
What was their primary diet? Light skin was accelerated in the fact that most Europeans consumed dairy products. Most Northern Asians in the same latitude are darker looking in comparison.
The reddish skin in Native Americans is probably because they were outside and did not wear much upper body clothing.
