Those numbers, which are horrible, are for relatively powerful women. Most women can't call Sam Altman and ask for help; they are not in-demand, people that powerful organizations feel a need to please. Just imagine what the numbers are for the vast majority of women with less power and influence.
Imagine the mid-level manager, the run-of-the-mill coder, the cafeteria worker, the janitor? Many of those people can't afford to lose their job and have less power protect their careers. And theoretically they may be more likely to be victims: Men distinguish based on physical attraction for these purposes, not status, and they may see these women as more vulnerable and therefore as easier targets. Are you going to try to sexually coerce the VP at Airbnb or the caterer's junior assistant?
You know what the perpetrators say: 'Do you know who I am?' 'It will be your word against mine. Nobody will believe you.' 'You'll never work again.'
Those people need a Callisto too - they need one far more (and maybe Callisto already does that).
