thats not how it works at all. You dont hire someone unqualified just because they tick a box, what kind of insane would that be?

Qualification is also just a box. Of course will nobody be hired if they lack even the basic qualification. But the boxes can influence on whether you will hire the top-notch performer, or the just barely good enough dude who checks more DEI-boxes.
