I think the distinction is similar to the real-world situation: caucasian skin and East Asian skin are both fair, but are technically different-colored. Except we aren't told whether or not the Miroku family are descended from any foreigners. They're hardly an example when they're living in one of the few towns that freely intermixed with other races besides Jakokuese.
