I am unwilling to present the complete statistical picture because to do so is to invite a public hanging.
As my statistics professor once said, statistics can be used to prove anything, depending on what the person presenting them wants you to believe.
Without more data on the individuals you cited, these statistics alone are virtually meaningless. This is not to say that having a father in the home is unnecessary, but it is an incomplete picture you’re providing, and as such it’s not very helpful.

I also do not want to go down a rabbit hole
lets use some common sense
Asians have a very strong family bond, some even living in generational extended households
Asians have come to the USA within the last 100 yrs or so , and now have become the highest hourly wage earner in the USA.
It just so happens that the single motherhood rate amongst Asians are extremely low
They also place a high value on education and the parents takes steps in securing such for their children
I have long believed that fatherless homes are NOT the cause be all and end all
BUT it is a pretty accurate and reliable indicator of such
like the old saying: If it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck....it's not a chicken
