A delicious double entendre indeed - and if you read closely the bio of the writer, you see something similar too. Noun phrase or gerund?

"Lina Nilsson is the innovation director at the Blum Center for Developing Economies at the University of California, Berkeley."

"One of the goals of any company is to manage it's workforce"

No, that may perhaps be a smaller goal of the human resources department or whatever, but the goal of the company as a whole is to make money: sell lots of good stuff at a reasonable profit. (If the "goal" were eliminating its own workforce, every company could trivially make that happen by disbanding! Profit! ... er, GOOAAAALLLLL!.)

Your language equations are erroneous: "substantially equal" does not mean "equal in being substantial". It's not commutative.

"Maybe the universe where girls underperform in computer science and boys underperform in english language arts. Sort of like the one we're in, for example."

Is there a theory that the boys underperform in english -because of- the presence of girls?
