Those anthropological terms such as Caucasoid and Negroid were created in the field of anthropology.
The study of human evolution.
And differences between cultures, biologically and culturally.
And how diverse the human race is.
And to see what those differences and similarities are.
The term was not racist for the time, but anything related to the word negro has gained the capacity to be used as a slur because times have changed. It sounds racist to you because of cultural norms that have stigmatized words relating to racial slurs, regardless of their original use and intent.
So please stop bashing science.
