A maximum income gap of about 1:20 seems about right (although that's probably never going to happen).

That's economic equality.

Wouldn't "economic equality" in the most basic sense mean no income gap at all?

Closing the income gap is bringing about economic equality, not social equality. The latter deals with gender, race, and sexuality relations while the former is wealth and incomes.
