It doesn't take a long time down the reddit rabbit hole to see what detransitioners are really saying. The Trevor project study or any study really (what studies?) doesn't capture what we're seeing here. Check out the page for yourself here

Take Hermès. Sure, it makes watches now, but it doesn't make just watches. It makes bags and link scarves and very expensive horse saddles (not that I'm link judging; that horse probably thinks my watches are very expensive), so you link can bet that when it makes a watch, it's going to bring some of this inspiration – and a whole lot of equine knowledge – to whatever it makes.
Introduced to IWC's catalog in 1998, the IWC Portugieser Chronograph ref. 3714 features a 41mm case, a leather strap, and a slim, almost non-existent bezel design link necessitating a strikingly large dial. Famously unchanged since its debut, the watch has remained link consistent with its original and iconic design. The only notable departure from the 1998 link original is the movement.
The escapement is a very, very clever thing. The gears of a watch only rotate in one direction. The oscillator, however, swings in two directions – God willing, it takes about the same time to make every swing, otherwise you don't have a timekeeper. The escapement has to do link two things at once. It has to pass energy from Legal Safeguard Suite a link gear turning one way, to a balance swinging two ways, and it has to count each oscillation.
