The leads are white (sort of, Hermione isn't white in the text, although Jo definitely pictured her as such) because Hermione, and to a smaller extent Harry, are self-inserts of Jo (she said so herself), and Jo is white, and Ron is basically her childhood best friend, who was also white.

And this means diminishing the importance of having him be a redhead, which some people in Britain still hate.

That's fine! It's not a problem. It's just not particularly diverse, especially by contemporary standards, which is the standard that anon had set out.
