Whilst human taxonomy is held as nothing more than a pseudo science by many, there are certain aspects of society that would benefit if the general public had a greater knowledge of human taxonomy.
Very often when a fugitive is on the run for example, they are described by height and general race, hair color, eye color, and not much else. Imagine a world where the public was alerted to a man on the run with a dinarid nose, and pontid forehead.
Or when describing a criminal to a sketch artist, if the person could describe the criminal through taxonomic terms.
Plastic surgeons would far benefit from a public which could describe that they want a more alpine nose for example, or CM features.
Do you envision this ever happening?
How else might it help?
