As a person who wholeheartedly agrees that we shouldn't avoid considering unpleasant truths in the quest for truth, the real problem here isn't Damore's hypothesis, or the fact that he held it. And there is no problem with testing such a hypothesis in the search for truth. The real problem here is the context in which he presented his hypothesis is very prone to miscontrual of hypotheses as facts in a way that can cause unacceptable, and unwarranted discrimination that may be very hard to reverse.
