Green is closer to blue than yellow, but green is not blue.

this only makes sense because we measure wavelengths and put them in order and then can say green is closer to blue than yellow.

In what way is that analogous to sex? unless its a spectrum, but you say its not.

So, strictly, a trans woman is male. However, if she has undergone medical transition to some extent, it's reductive to only call her a male. It ignores her phenotype (how genes are expressed), which is female overall.

I might be misunderstanding what you mean by female phenotype, but how does medical transition give, or lead to, an overall female phenotype?
