No, you're right, it's definitely meant satirically.
It's true, though. Dumb people are biased to treat doing nothing preferentially. That's why there are some people who won't pull the lever in the trolley problem, it's why the bystander effect exists.
Dumb people treat letting puberty happen to innocent children preferentially to giving trans kids HRT, even though they're the exact same thing. Puberty blockers should be available to all kids. When you go to your yearly checkup at age 10, your doctor should ask if you're ready for puberty, and if so, which one. Parent and kid both need to fill out a consent form if yes. If no, then the kid gets a blood test each year and free government funded puberty blockers when the levels start to increase.
Being cis isn't "doing nothing". If you think this is "true", that means you think being trans is also a choice, which I'm guessing you don't. You certainly shouldn't.
