Sheik wasn’t a crossdresser, even in SSB she clearly has tits, they were just wrapped up.

In Ocarina of Time, she wasn't as shapely as in Melee, though. It helped the surprise reveal, although it might have just been related to limitations of the N64. Also, in-game characters called Sheik "he", like princess Ruto, even if that was obviously only to support Zelda's disguise while she was hiding from Ganon.

But troons will latch on to any justification to "claim" a character as one of their own, in their endless narcissistic quest to validate their delusions, so I really wouldn't be surprised if they attempted it here too.

Sheik wasn’t a crossdresser

I neither said that, nor is it actually the point.

Zelda was crossdressing in order to hide from Ganondorf in the FutureWorld of OoT since she had one of the three parts to the Triforce, namely the Triforce of Wisdom, while Link has the Triforce of Courage, and Ganon the Triforce or Power.

Sheik doesn't actually exist, the whole thing is a deception to prevent the end of the world from happening while waiting for Link to return.

Cross dressing implies that she was dressed as a male. She dressed at best androgynously, and had a clear chest binding/wrapping even in the N64 model.

in the original Ocarina of Time, Shiek was known as a man. Not because of troonery, but because it further enhanced the disguise.

I don't know about you guys, but Sheik always looked obviously female when I was playing it back in the day and it wasn't until I was an adult on the internet that I found out that it was supposed to be a "he" via pronouns apparently used in the game.
