When I say that people don't want to do it, what I mean is that NW Europeans are really obsessed about claiming that it is impossible to tell apart Celtic and Germanic. They don't want to know how Celtic they are, they want to be told that Celtic and Germanic are indistinguishable categories.

That's not true. The facts are that all Northwestern Europeans cluster together genetically. Any dna plot shows this. Some populations have had more drift but if you look at any calculators there is no division. If it was shown that there was a distinction many people would love it and in fact most Irish want to separate themselves from the surrounding area and actually embrace being told they have unique origins. Anyone looking objectively at genetics knows this to be untrue and wishful thinking. What exactly do you label as Celtic for starters? Do you really believe people don't want to be told they are Celtic? My experience has been the opposite.
The Irish Brigade's battle cry at Fontenoy, "Cuimhnigí ar Luimneach agus ar feall na Sasanaigh," translates to "Remember Limerick and the treachery of the English." After seeing the devastation caused by the Irish Brigade, the Duke of Cumberland reportedly remarked, "God curse the laws that made those men our enemies".

And what do you label as Germanic for starters?
Why do we use samples from Italy (Collegno), Hungary (Szolad) and Britain (Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms) as Germanic, when it is known that Germanic people are not native to these areas? We should use as Germanic samples from natively Germanic areas, such as Scandinavia, North Germany and North Netherlands.
