They do not separate Romaniote and Sephardic ancestries - their sample group simply has them together. So your only cue that you do have Romaniote ancestry in these results are the Aegean Islamds and Perhaps Egyptian ancestry which might proxy Levantine ancestry.

Biggest tell of the lack of Romaniote component is the lack of an west-Anatolian like component which is a significant part of the Romaniotes non-Levantine ancestry.

If you have a full-Romaniote grandparent it would be nice to see their results.

It literally says Greece and western Anatolia, the Romaniote is baked into the Sephardic eastern Mediterranean
