There's some relevance since the discussion is lead by "culture". It shouldn't matter. But does it?

Diversity is absolutely relevant to the topic of culture.

The composition of the company photo struck me too.

“Not a cultural fit” is an excuse used to cover a multitude of sins.

It’s obviously not true is all cases, but it can be used as. A proxy for racism and/or filtering out people with differing political or religious beliefs.

It would be nice if the article had dwelt briefly on what “culture” actually means rather than leaving it as an ill defined concept (that can be manipulated to less desirable ends).
