I imagine this perspective is quite rare. Apple's VP of Inclusion and Diversity had to deliver a formal apology after the following similar remark:
"And I’ve often told people a story– there can be 12 white blue-eyed blonde men in a room and they are going to be diverse too because they’re going to bring a different life experience and life perspective to the conversation."

She departed Apple soon after, though I don't have the evidence to make the stronger statement that she departed because of the remark.
