I don't think there is a relevant difference between the two. For some reason the myth was created that northern Italians are different from other southern Europeans, but on average I see no difference. I see a difference between northern Italians and Cretans or Sardinians, but nothing relevant with other southern Europeans.

They might define a possible spectrum. Pigmentation isn't defined by a lot of genes, let's say around 100, which is nothing in your whole genome, there are probably hundreds or thousands of times more genes involved in your skull, other features, let alone complex organs, such as the brain. But you still run the wheel each time for pigmentation to get your particular genotype and you have x% of chance to get something associated with this or that type of ancestry based on your admixture proportions.
You can even go further, siblings often look different, at least superficially and in pigmentation, but it's not like one can look Asian, another one European and the last one full on African, it still has to be statistically realistic unlike winning the lottery hundreds of time in a row. So I agree, individually, it doesnt predict much, up to a point. Most Europeans have enough admixture in common from all four corners to look like pretty much anything found inside Europe and a few groups have enough from outside Europe to show some visible influence every now and then. Then it's more a matter of average frequency in general.

And why should I? I'm not a neo-Nazi hahaha, I simply said that in terms of pigmentation the northern Italians from what I saw are lighter than the Spaniards, and the fact that others have realized this confirms what i have seen, desires are far too important to waste on such bullshit

I honestly do not understand why you are offended when someone tells you that you are also a Mediterranean population, I have been there in Spain, it is clear that you have a darker complexion on average than in northern Italy, it is much warmer in Spain than in northern Italy, I'm not a "patriot" or similar bullshit, so I don't really care who is more "white" also because being neither Northern Italian nor Spanish is a pseudo-war that doesn't concern me, but you have to be objective, the simple complexion is on average darker in Spain, which is also obvious considering the geography of the two territories, also because the Spanish Nordic is usually Atlantic, in Northern Italy it is of Germanic/Central European descent
