You can test soft skills. Evaluations don't need to be objective, they just need to be consistent.

Doesn't 'subjective' imply 'inconsistent' unless you have one subject doing all the evaluations?
In that case, wouldn't that select for generally likable people? Idk sounds like evolution to me.

Of course, though, that's going to encode some existing biases in the data, but we could keep adding them to protected classes if society thinks they're worthy of inclusion.

That last part is pretty flawed today and changes slowly, I admit, but overall this system sure as heck solves more problems than I could come up with. At least, I think it converges over time.
