Perhaps because the idea is that we should be open to gender-affirming care being an option, rather than being banned? Let people make their own choices for themselves rather than telling them what they should and shouldn't be allowed to do to their own bodies. Some will regret that choice, yes, and we should also empathize with them, but we shouldn't deprive others of the same choice just because those individuals feel regret.
Edit: This also feels like cherry-picking. Glancing a the https://text.npr.org/ https://text.npr.org/ URL from a sister thread shows some pretty moderate reading. For the sake of the argument, if we assume that this article is left-leaning, it's drowned out by a sea of otherwise moderate content.
