Lack of impact on Olympics

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but reasons for why we have only seen limited impact on the Olympics from trans women?

I know that we have seen XY DSD be successful.

Because female Olympians are really bloody good and it still takes a decent transwomen to beat them. Statistically there are just not that many of that calibre.
More significantly, until 2016 transwomen had to have undergone genital surgery and until 2021 hormone treatment - things that will further reduce that statistical likelihood. Now those restrictions have been removed, we're going to see a lot more taking women's prizes.
