>You need to know how they will react under pressure to an extent that I think is largely irrelevant for a lot of engineering roles. The problem is that not all pressure is considered acceptable.

While it isn't specifically the same thing as discriminating on a protected status, I see it as equally harmful form of discrimination (and a failing of law to discriminate between these groups).
