I think that the causation here is valid i.e. that inclusiveness eventually results in diversity. How fast? Depends on the team, the organization etc. The reverse - to insist on diversity from the outset even if it's at the expense of skill, makes zero sense - absent the necessary skill early on, the business may fail - and the diverse team will have to go on and find new jobs. Skill and inclusivity first, diversity as an eventual outcome, not the other way around.
