Indeed. It's a great leap from here to privilege.
I'm all for policies which expect x amount of people to be from certain backgrounds but they need to be done on a lower bound because that is what highlights the issue.
Those policies have been enacted and have made things worse for those groups. Example: affirmative action increases failure rates among blacks by placing a larger proportion of them in academic institutions and curriculum above their scores and skills.
