I did not mistake her for anyone. I know exactly who Caroline Cosey is. It was a walk on non speaking extra roll. I guess I consider any bikini clad female, speaking or not to be a "Bond Girl" if they were on camera and their faces were seen. Maybe don't be so pedantic?
Maybe speak more clearly? You know very well that an extra with a non-speaking role is not considered a "Bond Girl" outside your own personal audience of one.
I wasn't kidding about the confusion. There are a ton of Bond fans who believe the character of Liesel in For Your Eyes Only (played by the non-trans actress Cassandra Harris) was played by a trans when they hear there was one in that movie because Harris has a deep voice and like Cosey is 6' tall. Very easy and understandable mistake to make. I was coming to your defense here. I should have known better considering your history.

But that's not what the term 'Bond girl' means. The character has to be Bond's love interest, companion/sidekick, or adversary. The two 'Bond girls' in
For Your Eyes Only were played by Cassandra Harris and Carole Bouquet.
It's not pedantry, but definition.

Jimmy Darren, the actor who played the singer Vic Fontaine in DS9.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
