I use "guys" to refer to groups of women all the time. I don't think people who say "you guys" check and make sure it isn't 100% women before saying it.
Seems to me that "guys" can refer to a group of men, or to a mixed-gender group, but not to a group of women. So while it's absolutely the case that it can refer to a mixed-gender group, using it that way is still problematic in that it emphasizes men's membership.
