You’re just insisting on this without explaining it. You say that this isn’t how dysphoria works but first of all, we need to ask ourselves if I even have genuine dysphoria and why supposedly this (displacement of heterosexual feelings. Shifting from attraction to identification because that feels safer) is not a way in which dysphoria could emerge. I didn’t have dysphoria before identifying as a troon and before engaging with it all… I literally started out thinking “what are people dysphoric about” and imitated that because I thought “I need dysphoria to be trans” and then cultivated it within me… so it seems very much like me setting a standard for how I should look and that then being the reason for the “dysphoria”
