Some are real close, hard to tell someone with strong Irish ancestry that their skin isn’t white. There’s plenty from Africa on the opposite end where you’d be hard pressed to say their skin was brown. Just defined by the closest major color, I can’t think of a better system.

Billy Connolly once described his skin colour as “pale blue” :)
And, we’ve legitimately had that before. Can’t forget the blue people of Kentucky.
Maybe not categorizing people on something as superficial as the color of their skin?
