The problem is that DEI efforts are paying those reparations by fucking over other minorities (namely, Asians). Add to that the fact that prestige is zero-sum so you will never get "enough seats" and DEI is trying to solve an unsolvable problem.
And that's ignoring the fact that culture plays a huge factor in success of different races in different things. For example, black American culture has a huge emphasis on sports and it shows in their standings in top athletics competitions.
