Let me clarify a bit - that’s exactly what we agree on: that no one transitions for the advantage. Cause that would just be rediculous. So no, I can’t provide you an athlete who transitioned for that reason…

but that doesn’t make my concerns invalid, because it doesn’t all rest on that point. People can have good intentions and still cause a result that is unfair (but not because they wanted it to be unfair). That’s why I see the hypothetical scenario as a strawman/diversion.

I might respond to the rest later, but I wanted to at least get this out for now.
