Maybe if you’re starting from no priors, but actually we’re starting from the prior of 2,000 years of religion-driven apartheid (arguably mandated, but happy to concede this point), and ~50% of Indian-Americans still subscribe to the system that’s responsible for that apartheid (even if they might disagree with the apartheid itself).

So with those priors, I simply cannot put much weight in “people accused of being discriminatory are worried they will be accused of being discriminatory.”

That argument can be leveled against any civil rights action.
