What is opposing theory to this? I.e., idea that inequality bad

Maybe I’m in a bubble that I seem to hear this and while I do agree I would still like to know what the opposing idea is here.

I suppose it’s something like inequality is inevitable so you can’t remove it; instead you can try to make it comfortable for everyone and that due diligence can help.

Perhaps a well-run military would be an example; unequal by definition but without all the parts working well it falls apart.
