Warren's "idea" was to counter the idea that "woman can't win/are disadvantaged in an election" by pointing out that if you look at the W/L records of everyone on stage the women are undefeated and the men have accumulated 10 losses.

It's obviously a massive oversimplification of the issue and made for a soundbite but spoiler alert: the debates are all about getting those kinds of moments. But also the debate format means you literally don't have the time to make the more nuanced argument. The closest that Warren or any of them could get was pointing out that in 2018 women candidates outperformed men. (And if you buy my rambling game theory because it was the best possible pivot away from the BS feud drama she could make.)

Reading some negative, exploitative purpose into it is just looking for it and fitting it for that IMO.
