I think is good that they don't use DEI. (When one side is DEI and other side is discrimination and racist, both sides are bad.) They do not seem to exclude anyone because of this, and they said they aren't excluding anyone because of this (and hopefully they are not lying). They should include people, and DEI is not a very good way to do it.

I also think is good that they had deliberately being trying to avoid other problems, so that they will not be affiliated with the BigTech and the related stuff.

Hopefully they will actually be able to improve it.

Seems to just open the door for discrimination under false pretense. "well their code wasn't good. Nothing to do with their identity." We've seen it time and time again that it's confusing why so many reject reality.
