have we ever even seen a non-human admiral? the president isn't human but it seems like the entirety of starfleet brass is
There was a Vulcan Admiral on DS9, so that's at least one. The Federation Presidents seem to be non-Human more often than not though, which makes sense.
Perhaps suggesting humans are the most adventurous/likely of the species in the federation?
maybe, or maybe there's some species ism happening at the upper tiers of starfleet. there are SO many species and people in the lower echelons, it makes no sense for the admirals to be so homogeneous. plus the admirals being bigoted aholes would play into how 99% of the admirals we meet are egotistical douches who seem to be working directly against the very ideals starfleet claims to represent
