And calling her a "Bond girl" is a bit of a stretch. Great that she was included but she's not quite on the level of Melina Havelock or Countess Lisl von Schlaf in the movie.

She was included because she was stealth and no one knew. It only came out after the fact.

Most trans people were invisible at the time. You either did all the surgeries, fully passed, and cut off everyone who knew you pre-transition, or you didn't get get to live a normal life.

She wasn't there because the filmmakers wanted to be progressive.
