I want to agree with you but exceptional women lile Ada Lovelace are as rare as an office space not entirely ruined by the presence of women. Do you think there is a way to have both?
I think we simply need to formalize an exceptions process to any restrictions we put in, and set an objective standard that both sexes must meet.
Imagine it like non-pozzed PT standards for soldiers. You set it by the high standard, which typically only men will meet, but you neither lower the standard for women nor forbid women who can pass at the men's level from serving in roles they qualify for.
Do the same thing for cops, firemen, judges, etc. Pass the objective standard, qualify to have the job. Fail, disqualified, come back next year if you want to try again.
The biggest challenge would be designing objective standards, but there's a reason these things take groups of experts months or years of study and debate to properly implement. It's not impossible, merely very difficult.
