The thing is it isn't the super superior student with the 180 LSAT that doesn't get an offer, it's the kid that is at the various low ends of the schools typical admission spectrum. Ie the lowest non diversity admission is 168 but the diversity selection is a 160. The jump can be pretty stark at that juncture.
(And LSAT is a single component of the admissions matrix, one which in the rosiest of studies administered by LSAC is correlated at a .36 coefficient with first-year grades and drops to noise after that.)
