I don't know what would be more concerning here. Do you not know any real people with accents, or do you assume that anyone you know with an accent is defined by their "complex cultural background?"

I think what would be more concerning here is relegating non-white people to "fill in" roles of characters that aren't important enough to be developed in the script or original work in terms of their cultural background or lack thereof. Tokenism at its finest, if you ask. But, again, English isn't my first language and my own cultural background may be different from yours. Admittedly, I'm not used to seeing people without a history of immigration speak in a foreign accent and that is often an important part of who they are, in my experience. Little sense in fighting for having a character that is supposed to blend in 100% be played by someone with a heavy accent IMO.
