> Hiring is scary enough already without bringing the law into the picture.

This is at the root of a lot of social issues lately.

One person, let's say it's a person of colour, is afraid of not being able to get a job at all.

Another person, who is doing the hiring, is afraid of someone holding them accountable for actually hiring qualified applicants.

This is a very asymmetrical pair of concerns. But if you're doing the hiring, it feels like the worst thing in the world to have someone second-guess your decisions.

You are so busy worrying about this that you don't even consider how scary it is to look for a job, and have robots tell you that you aren't getting an offer because your diction and facial expressions don't match those of people who the company has already hired.
