If not for the quotas, a citizen of some other country would have an
equal chance to get a green card as a citizen of India or China. This is
a much simpler question than Python convention attendees, since there
are *in fact* more Indian or Chinese people in actual existence than
citizens of any given other country, which can't be blamed on any form
of discrimination.

That's immaterial, we're not talking about a limit on the total number
of visas.
