That’s how I feel, but I don’t think it takes away from people who see the situation as similar to being trans.

I was speaking more about the intention of the writers at the time they made the character. Seeing it as an allegory for being trans is still 100% valid despite it probably not being the intentions of the writers.
I edited my comment to make that more clear.

Agreed
I think I read that the way you intended with your clarification, and it makes sense and I agree with you
