Right, things are already not equal which is why last hire and lotteries don't work.
People also say that this is grounds for a lawsuit, but I think it will heavily depend on methodology. If they said "well you won't be laid off because you're asian" that's one thing... but if they said "layoffs traditionally favor white people, so we're going to anonymize our selection to avoid bias" then that's an entirely different story.
