The problem Google has is not the interviewing process itself (mostly). The problem is recruiters are told to try and close the gender gap. They find various ways to do this that may or may not be legal, but are at least morally questionable, like "reducing the false negative rate" as he puts it by letting women take more interviews despite a failing performance, like active discrimination in favour of women (and thus against men) and so on and so forth.
Even if interviewers had no idea who they were interviewing, which is possible but logistically awkward (Aline Lerner posted some data on this), the recruiters would know, and they're the ones making the decisions around how the recruiting process proceeds.
