I'm afraid I'll have to put an end to the OP's intellectual pose, thankfully. I don't have much to do right now.
As I've said about 10 times here, the Iron Age peoples of the Swat Valley shouldn't be modeled simply as a mix of Indus_Periphery and Steppes_MLBA. First point. Second, they have partial ancestry of the same type or similar to Shahr_i_Sokhta_BA1. In fact, qpAdm also suggests this.
Indus_Periphery 0.692±0.042
Shahr_I_Sokhta_BA1 0.104±0.045
Sintashta_MLBA 0.204±0.015
taildiff: 0.65960
