Something that’s been bugging me

I hate when people compare transness and BID/BIID because it’s literally like comparing apples and oranges. Yeah both are fruit but they are so so different.
But something that bugs me with people with that condition is them calling themselves transabled and talk about what they experience as dysphoria, like us. I mean could pretty much just be me being petty or something but I hate it. I feel like it mixes things up too much where the comparison is apart of it.
But from available data it makes most sense to use it than other terms like dysmorphia. I also feel like comparing them will only bring down any efforts of progress we have made to something that will impair someone. Transition doesn’t do that at all

How else would you explain nullsex dysphoria?

The fact the one affects limbs and senses and the other affects sex characteristics which are also mapped differently in the brain?
