Because people who care don't get nearly as much press as people who talk about women being excluded.
Because the men who work in tech don't care so much about race, but they do care about the obvious lack of women.
Because it's easier to go "we have 40% asians and indians" and ignore the issue than to find a way around "we have 95% males".
