Why YSK: because what seems like equal situation from surface isn’t always equal opportunity for all. And even when equal measure of help is provided, it might not be equally useful.

Nah, that’s just how work towards Equity is portrayed by those who are already standing on the ladder that reaches the tree. I.e., a bunch of fear-mongering about how giving someone else a taller ladder will somehow shrink their own ladder.
Saying “life is never fair” is basically just saying we can’t build a taller ladder, so the only (implicitly unacceptable) solution is to swap ladders.

The thing people seem to miss is we want equity of opportunity not equity of outcomes. If I put in half the work of another person doing the same job as me I shouldn’t expect the same results for my work.
