No... You don't hire incompetent people. You hire competent people. The "competition" is the one that is hiring the incompetent people, by missing out on half of the talent.

Focusing on diversity makes your company MORE competent, not less.

No. Focusing on competence AKA merit makes your company more competent. Focusing on something else necessarily hinders your ability to focus on competence.
