Yes, it must be 0, but people are people. You get 10 000 employees, probably some 7-8 000 of them are men, so the remaining 2 000 women will receive a lot of crap. Proportionally more than if the split was 50/50, so SpaceX needs to adjust for that.

Same is true in areas dominated by women, if you are the only guy in a group of female nurses you will almost certainly receive the most physically draining work the whole time for the same pay. You will also hear a lot of sexist jokes about men, and quite likely receive potentially unwanted sexual attention.
