People write about why diversity is a moral imperative because it’s useful, mostly to come up with creative solutions and avoid groupthink. But, is diversity intrinsically good, a thing worth maximizing for its own sake? Here’s a quick question to test that, I would love your thoughts:
In situation A, Alpha and Bravo lead identical lives and do the same amount of good in the world.
In situation B, Alpha and Bravo lead completely different lives and do the same amount of good in the world.

Which, if any, situation is morally preferable?
