Dear GCs

Assigned sex is nothing to do with chromosomes, developmental pathways, or 'potential'.

When babies are born society sticks them in a box base on the approx appearance of external genitalia. That's it. It means nothing in itself.
But from this initial 'it's a boy', 'it's a girl' the child's whole life is mapped out. What school it goes to, what clothes it's expected to wear, what hairstyle it's expected to have. And much more in some parts of the world. This is called 'gender'.
What you are trying to do, because you KNOW that gentitalia tells us nothing about a human, is to somehow make that initial quick squiz at a baby's bottom into something profound and meaningful by spouting nonsense about 'developmental pathways'.

You are literally upholding-
The system of gender, and thus the patriarchy.

Well done!
And you are of course doing all this to justify your inherent transphobia. I cringe for you.
