As to your point about relative population, this could have been said in other regions as well. China and India could have argued this point in Asia, others in LAC, others still in Europe. Nobody has done so.

No other region has language that guarantees seats to specific countries. That's about the most anti-diversity approach I can imagine. R's, John
