I’m more annoyed that these government healthcare marketplaces are asking people their race in the first place. Really don’t think anything should be, including job applications.

I never (in the US) have understood why those questions include separate questions for race (seems to be like white or black or asian) and for ethnicity, including a really odd question about Latino or non Latino.

Why those questions, but no Danish vs non Danish, and so on?

do they ask about pre existing conditions? then prbly race also makes sense.
