As far as I can tell, the reconstructions are based on complex factors from the skull and any other available skeletal and biological evidence. But there’s no real way to check it. So, is there some genuine scientific purpose for it?

Granted, the scientific purposes are limited, but it does give researchers a view of what these people looked liked way back then.
Facial reconstruction is done scientifically, taking into account facial musculature and skin thicknesses in current humans in different areas of the face, and applying it to skulls they have found to get a general idea of what yhe person looked like. It could also give away any deformities or possible diseases that may have existed then. It may not make am exact match, but it does give a good idea f what they looked like, and could even age them. It also helps with the media side of attracting people to read something interesting on newsfeeds aside from lopsided politics.
