Pay equity is and should be about helping unlucky people be more lucky. One cannot choose to not be a class that receives lower compensation inherently.

Looking forward the the HR role specializing in telling you that you are ugly but because of it you get a 5% pay bump.
Or the after interview meeting where your potential coworkers try and decide if they don't want you due to a skill issue or just because you are ugly.

In aome industries blind interviewing is the norm, and it solves those issues quite well.
Anecdotally, I interviewed and hired an entire team during the pandemic and most applicants chose to go camera off. It’s turned out great.
