if there are 894 candidates for a position, there's going to be somewhat arbitrary weeding out somewhere down the line

They could have used any number of other criteria for "arbitrary" weeding. Academic or research record, number and impact of publications, years of experience...

Regardless of how arbitrary you claim the filtering is, the effect is the same - it makes commitment to diversity the most important, primary criterion.
