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.

"The woman laurel Hubbard displaced was from Nauru, 19 or 20 compared to laurel Hubbards 37, well past the age female weightlifters can compete at that level but when you’re a male competing against the women you don’t need to be at peak age. The entire island would have been supporting her, their first Olympian in a long long time (laurel is from nz, a white middle aged wealthy male)"

From Fair Play For Women's page..

That woman’s name is Roviel Detenamo. She’s from Nauru, a small island in the Pacific Ocean. Weightlifting is a big deal in Nauru. Despite a population of only 10,000 this tiny country has produced a total of 10 Olympianss_, all except two have been weight-lifters.
