I am not alarmed. Sesame Street optimism INTACT. Flanders out.
Just a quick pointer on the term "growth"

It is mathematically impossible to have infinite growth on a finite planet.
Our economic system is built upon compounding interest rates. This requires infinite growth. Until anyone understands what that means, they have no logical ability to discuss growth , the merits of diversity accelerating said growth , or otherwise.

As for the other bonus' for "diversity" : cuisine and "interesting" are poor arguments. I can think of many good arguments for diversity but "more growth , more food choices and more "interesting" are not them.
The growth argument is what is perpetuated by the very very uber wealthy because it keeps their asset prices inflated their debt riddled balance sheets above water.
Learn to economic.
