I get your point, and your point is valid. But consider both sides of it: unqualified bro gets promoted because friends - bad, also unqualified female gets promoted because quota - also bad.

I agree with some of this, but back to the underlying point so we don't get too distracted: they cannot just leave the position for German defence minister open.......

And you're kinda proving my point - let's pick our surgeons based on merit, not quotas. Same for defense minister.

If you have a complicated operation that has high chances to go bad you will pray for the best surgeon regardless of their gender and not "sufficiently competent" one.

How does a quota stop you from doing that? Not only are you able to pick from the 50% best male surgeons, you're also able to pick from the 50% best women surgeons!

If you hire because of a quota and not because they are the best some will turn out to be not as good as they could be.

Why do you say that? I have explained why the 'top' people are not necessarily picked on merit.
