I do have a question though, while you're... sorry I do apologise, while @RantingManchester is decrying scientific hubris, here are some figures from the US dept of Justice that the FBI have compiled on hate crimes for 2022:
"LGBTQI+ Targeted Crimes: Incidents targeting gay men reached 1,075, while anti-lesbian incidents numbered 622. Both categories recorded their highest totals in the past five years and increased by more than 10% since 2021. A significant increase of nearly 40% was observed in reported anti-transgender incidents (totaling 338) compared to 2021."

More hubris?
Crime is bad.
