The practice of referring to "other girls" is prejudicial and assumes the conclusion it is trying to prove. It is a logical fallacy that misleads the general listener into the assumption that trans girls are a kind of female person, when in reality trans girls are biologically male and should correctly fit into the category of male persons. The general listener thinks, "well of course any particular kind of girl should compete with other girls." But the real question is whether biological males should be allowed to compete with biological females if they wish to do so, and another question is whether biological males who wish to compete as if they were biological females should have the right to entirely redefine the category of biological female, not just for themselves, but also for everyone else.
