> b. Treating people equally when they start from an unequal position reproduces inequality.

I disagree, treating people unequally diminishes their achievement and hard work.

Its really hard to say that X group is equally as capable as Y group and then have a lower achievement bar for X group vs Y group. Actions are stronger than words and the action says that X group is less less capable because apparently X group needs a handicap to even compete.
