Or some of the Neanderthal genes Homo sapiens inherited had subtle detrimental effect on the survival of those bearing the genes, so over large number generations these subtlety detrimental Neanderthal genes were gradually eliminated from the gene pool, leaving only Neanderthal genes that were neutral or positive for survival, resulting in descendant populations having fewer Neanderthal genes overall than ancestral populations, without any later admixture with populations that had no Neanderthal genes.
