Considering I don't even know the specific "individual", I don't know how I'm twisting words. You literally talked about wanting a C-level exec like Ybarra (though he's not C-level) having good system design chops.

I don't know where you're getting your misinformation from or if you're making it up on the fly, but it has no basis in reality.
Good, then you have nothing to worry about since that's not happening. More diverse folks are getting promoted and hired, yeah, but that's because they're just as qualified for the jobs and the old "good old boys clubs" are being slowly, very slowly, broken up.
