The judge doesn't need to know how the business works. Your understanding of the law here is severely lacking. Employee finds out she is making less and has evidence of direct sexism on the part of the employer (memos, that sort of thing). It then goes to court. The employer can then say "this person is paid this lesser wage because they're a worse employee, see this evaluation". At no point does what the company do become itself relevant.
