yeah, I've seen the argument. people cry out because testosterone is (deservedly) considered essential for ftm trans people, while in most sports, it would be considered doping for cis people.

while I can see why people feel like it's unfair treatment, they usually have no idea about the trans experience. excluding trans people from the opportunity to have a sports carreer would in any case be a lot more unfair than some selectively allowed hormones for athletes.

I don't see how it would be unfair as long as his testosterone levels are within average the male range.
