The decision of who to fund may rely in part on seeking people similar to oneself and if the demographics of the applicant pool are not reflected in the staff of YC it may skew the outcome against minorities.

So then you are saying they discriminate against e.g. Hispanics, but subconsciously, while at the same time consciously they want to show off how many hispanics they acccept.

Well I suppose it's not impossible.
