EDI 30 years ago used to be Electronic Data Interchange, but since the internet made that passé, the TLA has been co-opted for "Equity Diversity and Inclusivity".
And there's a whole media and financial industry sprung up to enforce it. Who financed that?
It isn't clear that EDI has any positive financial implications, since in business, getting the best person for the job is likely to achieve the best financial results, all other things being equal; but since when did crusading politics care for financial results in the real world?
So who is paying for all this now?
