I'd love to see the double blind white paper that quantitatively shows that.
The thing is gender affirming surgery is for treating a mental state.
That means it isn't qualitatively different than other surgeries to treat mental states
That doesn't mean its bad, but it does mean its potentially dangerous, and counter-medicinal, unless carefully vetted and compared against nonsurgical treatments.
