I suppose he should have said "gay ewes *would be* hobbled" and lesbian sheep *would be* incapable of coupling up".
His quote shows that people say there's no way of knowing one way or another, like you say, but Doctorow changed the language to be a bit more suggestive of certainty that the phenomenon exists.
