I don't think it's bullshit. Writers constantly default to white even in situations where the demographics don't make any sense--one particularly egregious example IMO would be The Walking Dead, where the vast majority of the early main characters were white, despite the fact that it was set in Atlanta, which has a population that's over 50% black. Sure, Rowling could have made the decision to write her characters as primarily white because it was most "realistic" in her setting... but I think it's more likely that she never sat down and consciously made the decision.
