    god, this is terrible. there are some weird implications even in just these three characters.

    very short man is "less diverse" than very tall, muscular woman, whatever that means. being black is "less diverse" than being old? torbjorn's disability score is equally diverse as being a tall, muscular woman.

    what am i even reading :cat-confused:

          Let’s napkin math this out.

          There are around 1 billion people alive over the age of 60, whereas there are 1.3 billion people alive in Africa.

          Ergo, old people are slightly rarer than black people.

          (Yes, doing this on a world population level leads to some weird outcomes, like white being more ‘diverse’ than almost any other race. But hey, Blizzard’s a global company now.)

            btw that would also mean the way to max out Culture is to go for Monaco or Liechtenstein as country of birth

        so what do you call it when different traits contribute more or less to that aggregate score? thats what im talking about.
