Why Does the World’s 50 Best Restaurants List Still Get It So Wrong?

I don't think they get it wrong but here is a good article by J. Gold which explains nicely for what special type of restaurant this list is looking for. And if you go for this trype of criteria than the list makes a lot of sense (but obviously is not perfect)

A thought-provoking article from The Eater on the same subject.

Eater seems to combine  "best of" criteria with diversity issues in the restaurant biz. 

I'm not arguing against diversity...its an issue.

But the word 'best' means best regardless of the chef's gender.
