There will have to be individual languages missing, for sure. But all North American languages families and all Australian languages families seems like glaring omission. Almost all Siberian language families are missing too.

The inclusion of say, Hatti, Ugaritic or Udmurt seem like odd choices to me when Na-Dene is absent. The entire PNW of the US is missing, and that was one of the world’s hot spots of linguistic diversity before colonialism.
Plus if the languages of Papua New Guinea can be condensed into a single Trans-PNG line, Australian aboriginal languages could just be put in a single line as well, surely.
