If the so-called "Basque" component was disproportionally concentrated among the ethnic Basques, their coordinates would look like a bunch of zeroes with a single "100" in the position of the so-called "Basque" component, which would produce absurd distances between Basques and other populations when calculating them on a simple tool like Vahaduo which doesn't account for a relationship between components.
Here is a tip: don't pay attention to the labels of the components. They are arbitrary labels based on a broad association with their geographic distribution. The components could very well have no labels at all and you would get 36 anonymous numbers like you have 25 anonymous numbers in G25.
