For example, on Phoebe and diakonos, I assert that the non-egals are CHOOSING to interpret the relevant verses that way.  In their view, they are making the ONLY faithful choice, the others are MUCH less possible and break their existing paradigm so are to be rejected.  So they need more awareness of the choice they are making, as they make it so effortlessly they do not even realize they are making it.  Once they see they are making a choice and there are other possible choices, then their position crumbles.
