I don't get it. Why is equality of outcome not a desirable goal, especially in science and technology? These authors only try to disprove theories which potentially explain the inequality and then conclude that there is no injustice. This is logically flawed in my opinion. In order to justify the inequality they would need to come up with a plausible theory why the inequality is inevitable and then support it with sound facts. Otherwise social pressure from "feminists" is well justified.

Would equality of outcome in the NBA be a desirable goal?

Why do we see so few East Asian, Hispanic, and Jewish NBA players? What policy would you create to correct this "injustice?"

If it wouldn't on average it's reasonable to assume that there is a bias of some sort. You can decide if this bias desirable or not.

Because they don't seem to care. If they would care, it is your decision whether you fight with them or implement a quota.

"Because they don't seem to care."

I believe we have established in this conversation that people claiming "difference of affinity" are just covering over their biases.
