Rare, sure, but keep in mind that even a 0.2% incidence rate means that 16 million people wouldn't fit the binary gender model. And that's the most conservative estimate for the condition given in the article. 6% puts it closer to half a billion people.

That's what I took from it as well 0.2 is 1 in 500, ok its quite a lot, but 6% is just over 1 in 16 people.
