GS,
Differential settlement of Asia and Eurostan: see the relative dates (asian settlement is much earlier at 85K), ignore the locations of the splits which the figure seeks to obfuscate by using a non-peters map:

The details are not important, only the fact that they admitted much earlier settlement of Asia compared to eurostan.
HV, U;K, JT are all derived from Rohani. Non-issue.
I and W are N clades which have South Asian (red) origin:

In addition, pre-N is localized to Malaysia.
That is the near totality of Eurostani clades, all derived from S Asia.
The E-W split is due to Toba and is a local split between S. Asia and SE Asia, which was subsequently amplified as these two regions expanded Northwards.
