Ive seen lesser qualified people get hired because of this. Ie multiple people get inverviewed, but even the the "least represented" is far less qualified they got hired entirely because of DEI. This was clearly stated as the reason why too. Happens more often than you'd think.

That’s not a DEI issue inherently. Not any more than a startup founder hiring incompetent friends any more a “meritocracy” issue.

how do do know it was dei specifically anyway? Was it explicitly said they were hired because of their gender or nationality?
