The controls in that study were general population, not transgenders who haven’t been reassigned, so it doesn’t answer the question whether transgenders would be happier after reassignment surgery. Trangenders have high psychiatric comorbidity and suicide rates in general, the question is can they be diminished.

Also, reassignment surgery isn’t the same thing as socially and culturally transitioning.
Good point.
