Mind you, sp3ctr4l pointed out that an observed lower compatibility with VR games is the only relevant difference (with scientific backing) they're aware of. The hormone stuff is a proposed explanation that might be from one of the papers they cited, which I'm too tired to look into right now.

"The only difference I am aware of is more frequent motion sickness in VR games and here's three possible explanations, one of which involves hormones" is a much different statement than "women are worse at video games because of hormones". Almost diametrically so.

Sure, they could've spelled out the implication that there is no relevant difference in skill between sexes. But they definitely didn't make the statement you responded to.
