but the face is a display of your genetical base, your hormonal exposure the last few years and of your health currently. Btw, that’s why the face is important in dating.

Everything is a display of everything else affecting it.

You are in some sense correct.

But using statistical instruments requires deep understanding of how they work. The article hints at that too.

And you do use it the same way in social context, although subsconsciously.

My experience is very different. When I see faces on photos, I get a completely different impression than seeing their owners personally and talking to them. Including romantic context.

Also what’s attractive to you might not be for me.

Sure, you don't see traumata etc on the face. It's just a base estimate and some people are better in it than others.
