Ya, a perfect recommender for the "best" candidate on some qualitative set of metrics would not be discriminatory (unless the underlying metrics were). It definitely wouldn't be useful. Hiring isn't a popularity problem

Lambda was securitizing the ISAs and selling them to investors on the backend, obviously with a discount based on risk. Some people treat this like a bad thing, but it's really pretty basic risk-mitigation and cash-flow stabilization.
