2. Now why might they have done that?
I'm no insider but we can look at the policy and make some educated guesses.
Two possibilities seem particularly like to me. The first is that the DEI language is inadmissible.
The second is that the policy offers too many protections.

Comments
The NIH states that in rescinding their policy, they will fall back on the HHS policy.
The HHS policy is very similar to the NIH policy, and presumably the NIH policy was adapted from it.
Many current actions at NIH and HHS more broadly are currently in violation of the NIH and HHS scientific integrity policies.
