Not saying "diversity produces sub par results". Saying that "look for the best" you will find the best.

"Looking for the best from a disabled, trans person of color" might make you feel better....but it's not likely to be the best story.
What make you assert that the 2020 Hugos weren't chosen on the basis of being the best stories?
