A better tool would just be to track the facets of each character's identity & gameplay role, and then be able to view a breakdown of how different categories intersect, i.e., what's the breakdown of race among DPS characters, gender among elderly characters, body type among female characters, etc. The push to metricize everything is what makes this tool weird.

I'm pretty sure the simple solution here is to just have two pools of data. One that's aggregated across many different games, and one that's specifically drawing from what already exists in your game.

I think it would be useful for identifying gaps because there is a lot of unconscious bias that even a seemingly diverse team might not think about. But yes it'd be weird if this was the only deciding factor in what kind of character to make, and it definitely could lend itself to some tokenism if that was the case.
