What dwarf ethnic group makes up the majority in Kraggodan?

So we have some a lot more information on Kraggodan at this point, and the Lost Omen's character guide has given us some more info on the main dwarven ethnicities. But I'm not actually sure which of the 3 groups Kraggodan falls under. Their city exists in the mountains, undeground, and on the surface at the same time, and they share traits of each of the three groups.

They don't seem to be as prone to adventuring as Mountain Dwarves after losing so many in the Shining Crusade, though there are exceptions in previous Royal Archivists and Gorm Greathammer. But they also have a really impressive trade scene, which screams surface dwarf.

My gut says to make them Grondaksen, or underground dwarves, despite not living entirely underground. That might just be because I think they are the most interesting-- lady beards for the win-- but they also put a lot of emphasis on Trudd, dwaven god of defense, which is very Grondasken, and the description of the runic family trees seems very reminiscent of certain features carved into Kraggodan's interior and exterior. I don't know that anyone who maintains surface trade would stick to a Forge Day, though.

My players are almost there, and I'd like to have a strong culture to present to them.
