Would there be any other reason at all to remove this portion from the bill? Or is it really as blatant as it seems?

It's interesting. It was removed along with verbiage including trangenderism in the definition of sexual orientation. This would be re-implemented as a separate protected status, but the exclusion of sexual attraction to children just disappears. So it almost looks like an accident, but it's a little hard to believe that.

"Sexual orientation" means having or being perceived as having an emotional,
physical, or sexual attachment to another person without regard to the sex of
that person or having or being perceived as having an orientation for such
attachment or having or being perceived as having a self-image or identity not
traditionally associated with one's biological maleness or femaleness. "Sexual
orientation" does not include a physical or sexual attachment to children
by an adult

Depends if they make it perfectly clear that the pedophiles in question are ones that don't plan on making illegal sex acts OR are actively seeking for ways to have no desire to do them (such as castration).

But it seems it's very broad. So I have my considerations on this person's true intentions.
