>Did you really think you could say that “much of what was in that memo is fair to debate” and “portions of the memo violate our Code of Conduct and cross the line by advancing harmful gender stereotypes in our workplace” without me asking you to clarify which sections you found fair for debate and which portions violated which specific portions of your Code of Conduct?

I don't think google knows where to draw the line between what is fair and what is harmful in the memo. I think they are just reacting to the media outrage. If they tried to draw the line it would just get shot down by both sides of the argument, only fueling the outrage.
