I'm surprised at how many people are so affected by the idea of diversity appearing in TV shows that they forget that the TV show they are watching is ultimately fictional.

Yes, it's a reflection of society, so yes all people should and could be represented. Lesbians exist! This shouldn't be a surprise to anybody in 2020.

TV shows are a micro-universe of the real world so you are more likely to see a reflection of the general population live close together in much smaller quarters, so that the world can be reflected on a TV screen.

That shouldn't detract from the fact that it's entertainment. The show is entertaining and it does just fine in doing so as well. The focus of the show is not the diverse components - that's just coincidental. Don't focus on the small things and you won't miss out on the big picture.
