Well, they did. /r/detrans was part of the GC ban. It was only due to backlash that they relented and pulled the "oh that one was a mistake". But make no mistake - if there hadn't been backlash from that community (and, admittedly, its distancing itself from GC and LGBdtQ lent them begrudging legitimacy in the eyes of the TRAs), it would've stayed banned. They realized that this would simply Streisand Effect the situation at the time, and relented.
