The value of diversity is in enhancing the marketplace of ideas and proliferating new content in it, not merely new types of participants. Under this interpretation of the value of diversity, ideological diversity is obviously just as desirable as ethnic diversity, or even more so.
This (that the value of diversity is in the new content that it includes/makes accessible) means that while traditionally/historically/largely excluded/marginalized/oppressed peoples' views should be made sure to be included, decisions on still being made on the merits of the arguments raised, including their's, and their views should not automatically be deferred to.
