What would this realistically be rated on? If anything it seems like racial profiling

[9dev]

Pretty obvious—"Guys, this year we need a few people of color and especially women on the hackathon, I don't want another white wiener party!"

So they artificially skew the participants by granting bonus points for any minority groups.

Could be diversity of proposal - if they don't want 50 people all trying to solve "the same problem"

[Brian_K_White]

No one uses the word diversity by itself to mean that.

Even if the writer did, it still isn't reasonable for a million readers to presume that a writer meant anything other than what they wrote, according to the consensus usage of the the words/phrases in the given context.

It only makes sense to assume the writer meant what most readers would interpret they meant, and don't move off of that assumption unless the writer issues some update or correction.
