Why YSK: because what seems like equal situation from surface isn’t always equal opportunity for all. And even when equal measure of help is provided, it might not be equally useful.

What stops the other person from choosing a different spot…
Myriad factors, many of which are out of their control. The illustration could have added fences and other barriers, but that would have sacrificed clarity for unnecessary accuracy.
The tree is a metaphor. In reality it could be job market, one being man and other a woman applying for jobs that traditionally want/prefer men to work.
Or any number of things.
I don’t know. What stops you from living in any house you want?
Nothing equivalent of that is depicted. What makes you see things…?
Clearly they are restricted to their own property. It’s unambiguously implied. So property ownership is at least somewhat depicted. Maybe they don’t own the side of the tree, but clearly they aren’t allowed on each others. Plus, there’s the whole thing about how analogies work. They all break apart if you stretch them beyond their point. Might as well just ask why equality isn’t just burning the tree down. It’s as nonsensical as your question and just as valuable to discuss.
The image needs better ideas. Maybe make the right kid has broken legs so that kid could not freely move to the correct spot
