I think this is missing the forest for the trees. The specific recommendations to his course is only one section in the broader theme of intolerance for different viewpoints on the demographics of computer science. In particular Reges seems to be getting pushed out over his belief that in a society without discrimination, women still won't be 50% of computer scientists. This does set a worrying precedence, and events like these are party of why I've long stopped sharing my honest opinion about discriminatory initiatives in diversity hiring and advancement. It's far too dangerous to be perceived as against diversity.
