> Is there any reason why you would want diversity?

Diversity is generally considered a positive thing for companies and countries. Also there have been complaints that US is poaching the best people from other countries so diversity helps moderate that.

The US sets US law to serve US interests, so I don't see how that would be a motivation.

Diversity in the green card pool is not the same as diversity of who lives in the country or works at a company.
