I never said it did that; It pushes back against the phenomenon.

The most neutral way I can put it: Every school turns away a LOT of equally qualified applicants, at some point decisions must be made. Next issue, schools don't exist purely for the benefit of the students, but the world at large. This is why you want a -- dare I say it -- diverse population. To maximize the good your students can do.

Now, one may not love race as a proxy for this, but it's at least arguably a workable solution.
