Key detail being "after transitioning".
Someone who says that they identify as trans but doesn't medically transition at all could still wreck competition. So sports competitions can't just allow all trans people, but only those who have medically transitioned. Then they need to figure out how to draw the line when it comes to different hormone dosages, surgeries, etc...
And all major governing bodies do, including the Olympics which opened up to trans people years ago. Making this statement about the system shows you're ignorant of the current state of sports governance.
