I do think this is true in general - most people probably conform pretty well to a gender binary and that's fine, but I think if 100% of your traits match your expected gender that may be a sign that there's Some Shit you would benefit from working on.https://twitter.com/GeniesLoki/status/1298524223309324288 …
My presentation is pretty default masc anyway but that's always been more of a "Life sure is easy when you look like a default white guy, isn't it?" passing thing than because I particularly care about masculine presentation.

I'm glad it's not just me. Sometimes I worry about discussing this stuff because of the way it could be used, out of context, to feed into TERF narratives of genderqueer and trans people simply having a problem with self-awareness

Yes this is an ongoing concern for me too. My honest opinion is that actually some of them probably do, and it's likely that a non-zero number of trans/genderqueer people could have taken a different path, but that this doesn't affect the validity of their transition.
