The research is being weaponised by anti-trans activists and proponents of alternative forms of gender care.
What research? This 90 page article doesn't link the study being discussed once. Neither does it link to the letter which the hospital was sending to parents, although they refer to it.
What is the deal with "mainstream" media that they're unable to actually cite anything they discuss? They have an "expert" who says the data is "bad" and "misinterpreted" but the reader isn't allowed to see it? Even newspapers could do bibliographical citations but just...don't.
I also laughed at "alternative forms of gender care", as though giving children puberty blockers, off-label, was well researched and the consequences understood, while councilling kids to love themselves and the bodies they were born into is some kind of kooky crystal healing type treatment.
