Well this should disabuse you of that notion:

— it’s a secret ballot

— the members of the jury aren’t widely known, as far as I can tell

— they care little for the reputation of the institution itself

— those that care are more likely to hate it for being snubbed in the past

— those that won obviously deserved the price and feel strongly that a meritocracy abhors loyalty

= this is a great chance to really vote with the heart, including settling a few scores with any group you secretly loath especially because “political correctness” forces you to keep it to yourself the rest of the year

Bonus inconsistency:

— there have been all-deaf movies before that didn’t win

Some groups were systematically or implicitly excluded from honors such as the Oscars for centuries. It’s great to see the trend bending towards justice. Unfortunately, they sometimes see their legitimate success undermined by various “but you didn’t really win the price/get hired/become President” strategies.

So… congratulations to being part of the problem, I guess.
