Good to see Edinburgh trying to change. I do suspect that unless it sees more Scottish accents in staff and intake that it won’t change much. But it’s a good move
Just don’t mention the black hole

It is on a scale unlike other places I suspect in Edinburgh University. You only have to glance at the faculty to see that locals from Edinburgh are a very much a minority, and Scotland in general is pretty small. Which mean that biases do creep in. And as much as I love Danny Boyle and Irvine Welsh, they have done a fair bit of harm to the appearance of the Scottish accent unlike a Welsh or Newcastle accent.
