Not needed because "women are wonderful" is to some degree mostly orthogonal to "men are more professional/deserve more/"... wonderful good attributes are not needed or even to some degree counter to "high performance" (but depends a lot where we look at, sure!)

Also pay-gap has likely also to do with the current men-bias also? Wonder if that would be the same if we had 90% woman throughout in these decising positions..

In the end all mine assumptions, what I actually want to say is: I don't think those two contradict or relate at all.
