The fact is that most elite athletes have biological advantages (how many 5'2" people play basketball professionally?). It's up to us to decide what is "unfair"

Why not just redefine categories to 1) Open division. Meaning anyone can enter this division. 2) Female at birth division. Everyone wins.

A) there have been 3 male Olympic weightlifters over the age of 32 in the 21st century. Hubbard is 43. B) at 20 Hubbard had a total lift of 300 kg, beating the current female record by 54 kg “Outrage” is a strawman from Twitter trolls. Majority realize there’s something wrong

It is always easy to diminish the impact an action has when it doesn't impact you. The women who have competed against her think it is very unfair.
