No one wants you to say, for example, "women and trans women", that would be ridiculous,

Alright, glad we agree here but there certainly are people claiming to be their own gender ("non-binary") or wanting me to refer to them as xe/xer and there is an ongoing debate about including extra asterisks in German words to signify the inclusion of extra genders.

I'm not asking for anyone to present themselves in any way, dress how you want. However, things like men participating in women's sports competitions because they identify as a woman is not something I'm okay with. I have a question for you: If a gender is just something I identify with or choose, what meaning does one's gender even have? Wouldn't that make gender just some arbitrary group with literally zero meaning behind it?

And: If I claimed to be 100 years old and identified as such, would I be entitled to a senior citizens discount, in your opinion?

Yeah, hackers have automated tools and they will, of course, only try each password once.

I wouldn't go out of my way to call them a human (why would I?) but I wouldn't go out of my way to call them an alien either. For example, I would find it ridicolous to try to force the captcha boxes to be changed to "I am a human or an alien".

As for your prosthetic arm example, that wouldn't be an issue for me. However, a person with two healthy arms claiming their left arm was a prosthetic one would be questionable IMO. That doesn't mean, again, that I would go out of my way to annoy them with that. But I wouldn't want to be forced to say "clap your hands or prosthetic hands" by someone who doesn't even have a prosthetic hand but just claims to have one. This is not inclusion to me; that is, IMO, people purposefully excluding themselves and then demanding to be included back in with extra attention.

But is being right really worth taunting someone about a major part of their life? Why does it matter?

Depends on the matter I guess but forcing people to make factually wrong claims (in a sense) to account for other people's feelings is not acceptable, IMO. I wouldn't stop calling the Earth a globe even if flat earthers took issue with that. (I hope you get the analogy I'm trying to make here).

I have a case and no matter how I dropped my phone, I'm convinced it wouldnt break, even without a screen protector.

My Pixel has a case on it, so you can't see the logo. What's all this fuss about?

Interesting. Diphenhydramine (US name Benadryl) is apparently banned as a medication in Germany, thats why you couldnt find any trade names...

Paracetamol and Ibuprofen (thats what they are commonly called here) are relatively common, the others I dont know. But dont you need a prescription for the last four?

From mountain to sea level yeah but the difference between Equator and North Pole is almost 1% because Earth is not a perfect sphere.

As a non-American, I have never heard any of those "trade-names" and wouldn't know what you're talking about.

The solution to the requirement of minimal trust is not to just give up on and trust few peopme with everything. 50% attacks in large networks are next to impossible.
