Oh, "science" always seems to agree to condemn the madness ... two or three decades after the fact. I'm sure if our civilization survives this bad idea, they will do exactly the same.
If anything, the history of science is notable for the formation of cosy little cliques that do their best to exclude everybody else until the bleeding edge of research has progressed so far that the dominant clique is simply unable to maintain control.
Seriously, from astronomy to atomic theory, it's one large group grimly clinging on to control until the entire community is forced to concede that the academic emperor has no clothes.
You'd think that, but look at the eugenics stuff from the last century like Novanleon referenced. There seems to be no atrocity a group mind cannot endorse.

I get that. I guess due to the idea that a man claiming to be a woman is obviously delusional. That should be a slam dunk like 2 plus 2 is 4.

That’s true. That has been proven over and over
