I think you must have missed it because the author mentions several times that it is more important to evaluate the individual.
Here:
> First and foremost, I think this requires a recognition that none of the findings I presented in this article, nor any findings that will ever come out-- justifies individual discrimination. We should treat all people as unique individuals first and foremost.
Here:
> I am a strong believer that individual differences are more important than sex differences.
And here, on the topic of male-female classification based on whole brain data:
> In fact, some recent studies using the most sophisticated techniques have consistently found greater than 90% accuracy rates looking at whole brain data. While this level of prediction is definitely not perfect-- and by no means do those findings justify individual stereotyping or discrimination-- that's really high accuracy as far science goes.
