She's not lying. Why shouldn't she use all the tools at her disposal?

How do you come to this conclusion? I get they don’t factor legacy, but assume they care about all the other holistic stuff.
They also absolutely recruit athletes.

Respect JHU.

JHU has the lacrosse bros. Don't worry. All hope isn't lost.

So you lied to get a perceived advantage because you weren't confident of your own record and ability to make a strong case for your fit to major?
So how were your JHU grades?
I hope you're not my doctor or personal wealth advisor or not even real at all (under-bridge-dweller).
How do you think Obama got into Columbia as a transfer student ? Occidental had a guaranteed transfer policy for "certain" students. He had average grades while at Occidental. He would never had have been accepted to Columbia as a white student, despite being born to a white mom and raised by white grandparents.
We all play our cards.
As Obama said in one of his books, he identifies as black because that’s how he experiences the world (when cabs didn’t stop for him, when he was followed around at stores, etc.). Biracial kids who “look black” aren’t spared racial discrimination because they have a white parent and grandparents. A white Italian checking off Hispanic is just being dishonest.
What if said white Italian’s ancestors have lived in South America for over a century, as is the case of virtually millions of South Americans?

Most people in this country are against race-based admissions, even groups that supposedly benefit, and Supreme Court has ruled that it is illegal.

None. They all sit their seething in their DEI sessions. However, the marginalized folks still know who most of you are - hopefully you know that.

But you're ok with a personal wealth adviser who did need to play the card because otherwise they wouldn't have had a shot? What's the difference? It's not a perceived advantage if it works.
My point is that if you are real and actually checked a box as a lie then you would be a thin-skinned, sleazy person who only looks out for himself. I wouldn't trust you not to churn my portfolio or steal from me as an investment advisor. And I would question whether you would overrecommend procedures and bill fairly as a doctor. If you are real, I've met people like you and I don't want you handling my business. I'll take it to someone ethical and trustworthy who outcompeted you without compromising. Risk factors in even without emotions. Liars are high-risk people to be around. That's why society judges them harshly when exposed.
