THIS. It requires exactly zero effort and zero risk on the part of the creators, unlike, say, a show like Voltron where not only did they make one of the main characters explicitly textually gay, they had him get married to a man in the finale. THAT is actual, genuine diversity. Like, hell, I didn't even like Voltron that much and I think it had some major storytelling issues, but I sure as hell respect that they had the guts to go there despite knowing the outcry it would cause.

EXACTLY.

I agree that's better diversity

I don't see how it's an either-or thing

Ehhh... while I get your point, Shiro had been entirely sidelined from the main plot by that point and his marriage was clearly meant as a checkbox to claim diversity. He went from the leader of Voltron, surrounded by his friends, to completely isolated, marrying a character who appeared approximately twice and who had no canonical personality. The relationship had no build-up or weight to it because it was an afterthought, because the creators wanted to kill Shiro off seasons before and resented that the powers that be hadn't let them.
