Helen’s mother was a Greek and Zeus seems to be Greek in myths where he takes on human forms, so it makes a lot of sense for Helen to be portrayed as Greek
Seems only some things are meant to be historically accurate while others are thrown to the winds. So you cant really fault people for not understanding what was the intentions are when the process is all over the place.
You can fault people for a lot of things here. I think it's pretty obvious that a story based on a Greek myth was never going to meet the threshold of "historically accurate".
