Again, like many others missed, the proposal isn't "NO MORE SEGREGATION!". It's to let people compete against each other regardless of sex. I'd prefer it as a default, but it doesn't preclude voluntary segregation.
And with this too, I disagree. If you've done sports, you'll know the feeling of thinking you're the best and then meeting a stronger opponent. For some, it will be demoralising, but for others it's a stimulus. It also lets you learn more about the sport, what is possible, and in certain sports also develop techniques and tactics against opponents with greater values in different attributes.
Evolution happens faster under pressure and competing against better opponents is the best pressure there is. That's how you get the best of the best. You get out of your safe zone.
Also, again for you too, the suggestion is not "no more segregation ever"! You can read my edit.
