” Adding a separate memorial day for the 20th century holocaust dilutes the significance of Tisha B’Av for many people, ”

I dont follow, does observing the yahrtzeit of one’s mother dilute the significance of one’s father’s yahrtzit?
They are 2 tragedies both were terrible and we commemorate both why does a commemoration for the Holocaust dilute that of the churban?
