I really struggle to understand this equal pay business; I'm not (and don't ever expect to be) paid the same as other equally qualified engineers on my team. Each engineer's pay is the product of their skill level, how they negotiated as well as competing offers they had.

This model rewards those who put in the effort and is definitely biased towards people with certain personalities (disagreeable, etc). If we want to change this model, fine, but that's not the world we live in right now and I'm not convinced that it's necessarily a better world.
