Snark aside, if you believe this, I would like you to ponder the phrase “the choices afforded by the qualified pool at the time” for a year, then try again. Make careful study of the words “choices,” “afforded,” and “qualified.”

The idea of this one single most qualified person is a canard.
There have for decades existed many black women who are well qualified for SCOTUS, yet no black woman to date has been named. That IS the systemic problem. You make the systemic fix by naming a black woman to SCOTUS.

That fix is what Biden has declared he’ll make.
One might say that he could’ve just made that case by nominating a qualified black woman, w/o signaling the intention.
Perhaps. But this would miss giving people who think “qualified” means “white guy” a chance to self-declare.
