Society dictates, like, societal inequalities? I have no better term on hand. Society can do nothing about your innate fitness, intelligence, or temperment, yes, but it can do something about your voting ability, employment prospects, medical treatment, and so on.

"Social inequalities" almost all exist because fitness, intelligence and temperament aren't evenly distributed among groups and there need to be a default set of rules that let society function. I know two gay couples that are pretty functional - gay liberation still caused AIDS

I would like you to trust that the subject of biogenic inequality has been studied, as well as the subjects of comparative performance of various groups in identical challenges and of comparative social/medical/monetary outcomes.

I would like you to trust me because I have to go to sleep and don't care to pull sources at this time. Purely: if two individuals are equally qualified for a purpose, they should be equally likely to be employed for it. As an example.

Totally wrong for a lot of reasons. 1) Any given test is only a signal about the underlying ability being measured. Same test score for A & B - A is a member of a higher performing group - probabilisticly speaking A is overwhelmingly likely to be better qualified than B

2) Unless you're talking about park rangers people work in teams. Cooperation in teams is a very hard problem to solve. A lot of social technology goes into it - all that technology is thrown away in the name of equality because it requires different groups be treated differently

A and B are equally qualified. Not, A and B scored equally well on a test.

All qualifications are a test of some sort - they give imperfect information as to what future performance will be. You can always improve predictive power by looking at groups.
