Dark features? Well, I'm not sure where you and ToBeOrNotToBe came from and what people you've mt, but she's basically as dark as Catherina Zeta Jones and Pierce Brosnan, she wouldn't come off as non-European to me in any way. There are plenty of Southern and even Northern Europeans with skin complexion and, of course, dark hair and eyes. I think you guys are overstating the "darkness" of that reconstruction a lot.
Also, I don't think you should equate all EEF with the Northern European GAC and Funnelbeaker. From the example of modern Barbagia Sardinians, the closest to EEF, and many other ancient DNA samples we can be pretty sure that many if not even most EEF were dark-haired, dark-eyed and not that pale-skinned.
But, i dont equal all EEF ancestry as GAC and Funnelbeaker, they are stated that she is a second generation migrant coming from Northern Europe, wich at this point can only be Bell Beaker or Corded Ware. Wich if we assume her grand parents came from Netherlands, her EEF ancestry must have been from GAC or Funnelbeaker ( maybe a local resurgence of LBK ). As for Dark Features, i'm obviously. talking about it in an European way ( i have dark features myself ), not like " Africa ".
