Obligatory not QT, but trans. So, woman meaning something relies on woman being primarily defined by being an adult human female. People understand being a transwoman because they already accept this definition of woman. If you completely take away any basis on sex, it doesn’t make sense anymore. It seems really counterproductive for trans people to want to get rid of that, even on the basis of pure self interest, because if you actually succeeded it would undermine what you wanted (to be considered a woman/man). You could make about sex stereotypes I guess, but even then you have to already understand who those stereotypes are about. I feel like maybe it’s not serious and more like them just wanting to say something to insist they should be included in the sex category (which I don’t quite understand tbh).
