No, it isn't a tough concept, you're just a bigot. ¯\(ツ)/¯
I noticed that I edited my reply just as you posted this, so I'll add this here because you made the exact leap I knew you would - does your doctor know your chromosomes? DNA? Have you ever even had your hormones tested? The answer is almost certainly "no", because most people don't, because those things are hardly ever relevant, and if they are, it isn't because someone is trans (E: in most cases, anyway).
No matter how many ridiculous leaps you make, and how many times you swear you don't care about gender at birth or whatever:
You
Are
A
Transphobe
No one gets tested for it because it's very rare for it to not match up with your assigned sex at birth. Why spend hundreds of dollars on a test when you can just ask someone and get things right over 90% of the time? In recent years, doctors have always asked for both gender identity and assigned sex at birth, presumably because both are medically relevant.
But the OP is clearly not about medical data for healthcare purposes.
Give one example of anything like this ever happening.
