so you're saying to avoid biases, we should have a diverse and inclusive set of interviewers that can counter each others' blind spots.

And that meritocracy on its own cannot work because everyone is biased in one way or another. Got it.

I don't say the part about meritocracy, I don't believe that's a jump that makes sense, but the rest is correct, yes :)

I see meritocracy as an ideal we would like to be able to tend to, not something that has been achieved in the past or current time.
