A woman can't become a woman, they simply are one.

A transwoman transitions to a more womanly, feminine form, but is not a woman.  She is something all her own, distinctly different, equally as valuable

I totally agree with the first statement, and the second statement may be Your truth, but it`s certainly not mine.
And that`s perfectly OK too! it`s a Spectrum, a sliding scale if you like, and along it we ALL fit (except Agend folks, i really get my head around that yet and perhaps never wil)l,  but it`s Their truth and thus perfectly valid too!
I think the problem occurs when we can`t understand something, and so we assume that other must be the same as our understanding or some variation of it at least, and that couldn`t be further from the truth. it`s exactly what Cissexim does to US all the time, tries to pigeon hole us within their own understanding.
the Last thing we should be doing is the same thing to, and amongst ourselves!
