I disagree with, "it’s hard to interpret these parts as anything other than Damore claiming women are inferior" - he's clearly talking about preferences, not abilities. Also, your point about Google recruiting from the long tall is true, but ignores higher variance in men.

But with no consideration as to the outside pressure that may influence those preferences. Instead of considering the possibility some avoid a path that others make unfriendly, he assumes they either don't want it or can't cut it.
-
What does that have to do with the fact that Damore is not talking about ability? Outside pressure also has nothing to do with ability either.
-
His observation is the number of people who currently work in the industry. And his theory is that this number (or an even lower number) is natural.
-
The preference differences he lists are based on academic studies, with links in the memo. And I don't see where he puts forth a certain gender ratio as "natural". And this still has no bearing on your claim that he thinks women are inferior. I think that is still unsupported.
