How can we say that it is because of testosterone giving a competitive edge to a trans woman that they cannot compete against other women, yet ignore things like hyperandrogenism?
Because it is not just testosterone. It is the way the male body is designed different from the female body.
Living as a transgender is a choice. It may not be an easy choice, but if sports were important enough a transgender male who is not on testosterone could compete against women. He could even dress like a woman when competing against them.
Based on your logic there should not even be separate sports for men and women. They should all just compete against each other where all the elite women will lose to all the elite men. I don't think anyone wants that to happen. If you are going to have sperate sports for men and women you have o have some way to draw the line.
