The structural pay gaps exist because salaries are not public in the first place.
Paying less due to gender and race is already illegal. The only reason it prevailed is because proving it is difficult if you do not have access to the data.
Of course, that's my point :-) It is illegal but still exists empirically today, which is one very good reason why salary bands should be public.
