There are probably situations where it's an innocuous remark, but surely you can see that depending on the tone and what is implied, it might be extremely offensive, not very different from saying something like "oh, you're a woman, that's certainly surprising because women are awful at math and coding!"

Hence "depending on what is implied". You make a remark because something surprises you, and the reasons for that surprise might be benign or they might be racist.
