@Ritchie I am still not certain why it;s uncommon for men diffuse with an intact hairline and most men that have Norwood 1 or 1.5 their hairline stays intact no matter how poor the facial structure is. I have two hypotheses.
Those are atypical cases where the frontal sutures of the scull has fused correctly but the rest hasn't and that makes the tension more evenly distributed at the front and that's why the galea is in tension but the hairline stays intact.
They have more moderate galea but they have another problem besides the craniofacial development that restricts the blood supply to the galea and its is so inadequatly supplied with blood and nutrients that tissues overtime become damaged despite the fact that they have less chronic tension than people that have bad galeas.
For examples look at this man's ridges on his galea are distributed.
Or this man's ridges.
What I notice in the second man is that his sidebones of the scull are pushed back as in the rest of balding men but the hairline doesn't recede.
