My point was that open source by itself lends itself to diversity by it's very

This position isn't supported by any of the available data. In fact, the
opposite is the case:

The handful of larger Open Source communities and conferences that have

done so by implementing and enforcing codes of conduct, being deliberate
about avoiding exclusionary language and through active outreach and
accommodation efforts to include marginalized groups and minorities.
