Why is this (I presume scientific) paper written like an opinion piece?

What will it take to make our undergraduate and graduate researchers, our postdoctoral interview candidates, our faculty and our academic leaders reflect local and global populations — and why should we bother?

It looks like an opinion piece because the article is a comment. It indicates that at the top of the article. Scientific journals often solicit a small number of commentaries that address issues in their field.
