The Neanderthal in the article looks like about 25% of the people in Boston.

We show that instead, random changes over the past 500,000 years or so since Neanderthals and modern humans became isolated from each other/ are the best explanation for these differences." This is odd, because Homo Erectus was alive at least 1.5 million years ago and had a homo sapien skull.

OK, I'll be the first to do a serious post.
We show that instead, random changes over the past 500,000 years or so since Neanderthals and modern humans became isolated from each other are the best explanation for these differences."
After environmentally-related adaptations, which are the result of selection pressure, other changes are likely to be attributed to "random changes." That is what these authors have done.
But it would be silly to exclude founder's effect. I would be very interested in knowing if they are including founder's effect as a part of "random changes" or are ignoring it entirely in this study.

If everyone looked like that we would just have different standards of beauty.

There is no physical evidence for long hair, on the head or the face. That is an artist imagination at work. Take away the hair, and the resemblance is even closer!

Humans rank among the most repulsive, foul smelling creatures on the planet.
Which is why humans started adorning themselves with the furs of animals and the feathers of birds.
And why cats don’t need to wear lipstck.

The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve
Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]

I’ve been on a few blind dates in my date that proves they don’t.
