I think it is a balance. Have too uniform a culture and the variety of
our output will suffer, both in terms of those willing to edit here
(imagine the people who edit Wikipedia trying to get along in a normal
workplace) and the diversity of the articles. There is also an
argument that a homogenous workplace would work against 'neutral point
of view'.
