Mar 30, 2022 at 7:48 comment added Peter Taylor On the question, not on my answer. He links to mathoverflow.net/q/105400 which also discusses generalisations to abelian groups with no nontrivial element of odd order. I haven't tried to find the relevant article to see exactly what assumptions it makes.

Mar 30, 2022 at 3:18 comment added Aaron Meyerowitz It is a good reference, but I think I showed more since I did not assume equal size for the two parts.

Mar 29, 2022 at 22:15 comment added Aaron Meyerowitz Quite true. Still, it seems as if something stronger should be true. Maybe total sum zero?
Mar 29, 2022 at 21:11 comment added David E Speyer The proposed generalization doesn't work. Take $A = \mathbb{Z}/3 \mathbb{Z}$ and $(a_1, a_2, a_3, a_4) = (1,1,2,2)$. Then we have $1+2=1+2$, $1=2+2$ and $1+1=2$.
