This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Well then you'd have to allow for added criteria that this fictional transgender person do tests to corroborate that they don't have an unfair advantage over their peers.
I have literally nothing against trans people but there have been at least one case where a trans person had an exaggerated unfair advantage. This case of one "Lia Thomas", who went from 462 in male rankings to 1 in female rankings. So yeah, I do believe that these extra controls should be performed.
