I like contextualizing that question using a tool Matt Levine wrote about to understand the problem of doing fundamental analysis for a short sale. Winning a short position requires two things. The obvious one is that it requires something to be overvalued. If we posit that women are paid less, which is what your argument does, we have covered the first condition. The second thing required is a way for the market to become aware of this discrepancy. That would be the missing piece. Companies/Managers/Founders are the ones valuing the work. If they value the work less when a woman does it, then something has to change that valuation. It won't correct by itself.
