There will also be inclusion/equity standards installed for eligibility the 94th Academy Awards. Is this for every award category or just the major ones? Wouldn't it make better sense to just broaden the Academy membership?

Participation Oscars would be kind of funny.

Seems to be where it's heading, doesn't it?

So an award that was originally intended to recognize merit is now in recognition of inclusion/equity. Someone needs to start a new award that is strictly for merit.
