There is also a "someone has to be black" rule -- an NBC memo saying this was made public a few years ago

Are you sure it isn't a thing? I'm not saying the OP isn't being reactionary about this particular incident, but it sure looks like the rule and not the exception - either for new IP or any franchise that sticks around long enough.
I guess my problem is that the inclusion of it is typically just for shock value/virtue signaling - doesn't help with character development or advance the plot. Just sort of gay to say they have a gay character.

I can’t think of a single show made in the last few years that doesn’t have a gay person. Stranger things did the same thing this last season. Every show also must have at least a token black and usually a black/white couple.
