You repeatedly attempt to put words into people's mouths.
GP never said those words were "the most important thing to (them)". If anything, they seem more concerned that if they "state the simple biological definitions" will bring up people exactly like you, accusing them of the transphobia and potentially getting them banned (on a platform like Twitter).
You are not well-intentioned at all in this discussion: there was no reason to go on the banter to the extent you did.
I'd understand it if you said that we are at a time where we are challenging those definitions as they used to stand, as long as you recognize that "definitions", by definition, are prescriptive and need to be agreed between people to make them widely accepted. So I can define whatever terms I want the way I like them, it does not make them so unless I can get enough people to start using them that way, or ideally included in one of the well-known dictionaries of a language.
