Because most youth has meso and doli skulls. Dinaric is probably some deformation of mountain lifestlye rather than phenotype.
I see Dinaric young dudes very rarely, most young people are Alpine/Gorid and Pontid/North Pontid.
In 21st century Europe dinaric barely exists among any nation. Kids today look infantile as fuck.

I think it's more likely that the dinaric type disappeared due to intermixing when most people moved from isolated villages into bigger town and cities during the 20th century. It may have been a phenotype that was retained only due to homogeneity, I don't see how a lifestyle can change cranial features, I don't know perhaps something to do with diet and development?

The cephalic index showed no statistically significant difference between sexes or with regard to body height, while head breadth and length correlated significantly with birth year and body height, both in males and females. Head breadth decreased within the study period, while head length increased.
The frequency difference between various head shapes was tested using the chi-square test. A significant increase of dolichocephalic and mesocephalic and a significant decrease of brachycephalic head shape were found in both sexes. These results suggest a continuity of the debrachycephalization process observed in our population at the past midcentury.
BURETIĆ et al. (2004), analyzing the cephalic measures of students of the Medical Faculty of Rijeka (Croatia), aged 19-20, noted debrachycephalization and a frequent occurrence of dolichocephalic and mesocephalic, i.e., decrease of cephalic index value. Same author (2006) observed ongoing dolichocephalization in Croatian younger adults
