People with the condition which are an EXTREME minority aren't lying, there is genuinely something wrong with them that makes them feel they were born wrong and they had that with no outside pressure.
I could say the same thing about anorexia and alien hand syndrome, but I’m not seeing anyone advocate treating those by enabling them. The issue I take with your premise is that it only works from a standpoint where there is no other option for this tiny minority of people, no other treatment that would alleviate these feelings. Considering all the political pressure around trannies and how it is forbidden to look into any attempt at removing the feeling rather than granting the mutilation, I find that assumption to be extremely doubtful at best.
Think of it this way, because of the CONCEPT of trans is very recent, it's easier to manipulate politically compared to all other mental illnesses.
Everyone for centuries already had a concept for depression/manic, schizophrenia, multiple personality disorders, eating disorders etc that it's a lot harder to manipulate those conditions to a political ideology (not that they haven't tried)
Trans is so new that it was a lot easier to manipulate for the left to give more access to medical, children, workplaces, speech etc all under the guise of 'caring for a minority class'.
