Hopefully, any final judgement will consider primarily what impact the decision has on the armed forces.

That's the thing which matters most.

Last I heard, it didn't make any. But there may be new data.

So next level questions are about rights, and so on. But I think the question should be framed as everyone's rights, not just transgender people. Too often rights questions are only framed from one side's viewpoint.

Trouble with rights arguments is they are mostly politics in disguise. If you want to win political arguments, it's ballot boxes, not courts, that should make decisions.

The policy makes exceptions for several hundred transgender people already serving openly and for those willing to serve “in their biological sex.”
