I wouldn't care to. The author already summarized himself in his "tl;dr". And he thought he need more than a couple bullet points for that. None of those points said a woman is less suited for technology work than a man. In fact, he went to great lengths to dispute that fallacy.
Some of his suggestions implied that Google work practices could be more welcoming to people who enjoy more teamwork in their day-to-day (the bit about pair programming). And he mentioned that more flexible work arrangements would benefit people who wanted a different balance of work and family life. Both points imply that women want those things more (plausibly true, but I think that's an empirical question). So he thinks women generally want to work differently, but that's not saying he thinks they do worse work. If he thought that, he'd recommend putting women in less important roles or giving them easier work.
