Because the entire discussion is bogged down by people trying to signal how egalitarian they are, and if anyone has a marginally differing viewpoint then they must be distanced as far as possible as violently as possible lest the speaker be perceived as a bigot.
Personally? I don't think this is something that needs to be fixed. If women want to get into tech, they'll get into tech, and that'll be that. Many already have, and many more will continue to do so. Forcing the issue just keeps people on edge, overreacting to try to keep their perceived latent bigotry under wraps.
