I might miss the point, but the height is dependent on both parents genetically, so just comparing mothers with daughters is a bit like the usual "correlation does not equal causation" thingie, or not?
The X and Y are just labeled weird, both graphs reference father's height has the X and mother's height as the Y
Oh, completely missed that, thanks!
