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.

Or ignore the physical human attributes and pay based on metrics and performance? I’m aware, unlikely to ever occur.

Sure I am all for that, that's the way it should be of course.

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.
