I was once heard of a team where two equally, incredibly talented candidates were options. One of them had the same name as two other people on the team so they picked the other guy. Can't have three John's ya know?

(The name wasn't John, it was a fairly uncommon name, which made it waaaaay funnier)

In the most technical sense, that was DEI hire.
