I think you are circumventing the point. By having the word 'race' describe the different ethnic origins, you can then understand the concept of 'Racial Superiority'.
Columbus subjugating the Indigenous People. The English subjugating the Indian sub continent. The Dutch subjugating the Congo. I guess I could mention the Germans and the Jews, but you get the point.
So, IMO, the word 'race' has a place in understanding what has/is occurring.
It's attempting to shake up the status quo and create a less racist system. There's truth in the basic theory that race is a social construct and that since the construct dates back to the Roman Empire and the Catholic church, there's an inherent belief in it's inherent infallibility. Manifest Destiny was part of that construct.
In the military, everyone, regardless of racial or any other identity, are reduced to the same level and then built up together as Marines, dogfaces, squids, zoomies or Coasties. I think CRT is attempting something similar.
The bad point, and IMO it's so bad it needs to be stopped, is that it is racist by separating people by racial identity and declaring "whites" bad. It's a chance of birth that my ancestors primarily came from Northern Europe. Are people only 90% bad due to their heritage? 95%? 50%? What about Tiger Woods. He's famously not black. He's Cablinasian and is mostly Asian by ancestry and 100% American by birthright.

When Tiger Woods was asked in school to check one box that best described his background, he couldn’t settle on one. Perhaps that’s because there wasn’t a box for ``Cablinasian.″
That’s the word that best describes his background, a blend of Caucasian, black, Indian and Asian, the 21-year-old golf star said on ``The Oprah Winfrey Show.″
Woods, described as the first black Masters champion, said it bothers him when people call him an African-American.
``It does,″ he said Monday during the taping in Chicago. ``Growing up, I came up with this name: I’m a `Cablinasian.‴
Woods’ race has often been an issue in a game played predominantly by whites. It was brought to the forefront again when Fuzzy Zoeller referred to him as ``that little boy″ and urged him not to put fried chicken or collard greens on the menu of the Champions Dinner next year at Augusta National....

CRT in action. The well meaning Asian girl told the TRUTH. Her reward was to be silenced because the truth made too many people uncomfortable because they like living in a make believe bullshit world and did not want their narrative altered in any way. Truth be damned.
Have you been to the National Museum of the American Indian in Washington, DC or the First American Museum in Oklahoma? I've only seen the former but have the second on my wife's and my bucket travel list.
FWIW, I prefer the off season since it's cooler and less crowded.
