That's what I was thinking. But, as I recall (fallible to be sure) when referring to the kings of Gondor they're usually referred to as being of Numemorian lineage. And when it is discussed that they intermarry with other people it's talked about as if diluting the Numenorian blood. But, with the northern kingdom, the rulers are referred to not according to their Numenorian lineage but Dunedain.

So, is the question officially "answered"? lol

I think we came to it in a sort of round-about way.
