I'd love to see facial reconstruction of people of whom we have pictures and video. Since what I've heard of facial reconstruction is that there is a lot "art" in it.

It would also be nice to see police sketch artist renderings compared with the people they depict.

I've noticed that people rarely seem to see much value in testing procedures against questions with known answers.

I can tell you that, having seen some before, injured, and transplanted photos of facial transplant patients, their faces rapidly look much like they used to, regardless of the original person their face was transplanted from.

Bone structure is, as far as I can tell as a layperson, the major determinant of how people look. I found it quite surprising as I thought it would be the other way around.

The only obvious change was hair and skin color, essentially.

How would it work the other way around? You don't have a "look" before your bone structure exists right?
