Unless you can clearly separate these two things out, you've still got a problem created by society which needs to be addressed.
Only if we think it's a problem. Do we really think it's a problem if more doctors and most math teachers are women, and most coders are men?
Yes, that seems like a problem. It seems better to not exclude a large proportion of the population from any profession.
To the extent that there are gender differences diversity adds something. Why would it be a good thing to have most maths teachers be women when men can do a good the job just as well?
