I guess it doesn't mean much if you're cis, but this is actually a big win for those of us who care about trans rights.

Yes but also this is to make their extremely partisan rulings more palatable. Both things are true.

Personally, I'll take the wins where I can get them. This is more important to me than most of the cases they hear.

And I'm not saying you shouldn't. Absolutely. It's just good for people to remember their motive. They're not doing it because they're non partisan and fair. They're doing it to appear non partisan and fair. People (not saying you) get tricked by this and will point to cases like this one as evidence of fairness next time they rule it's legal to arrest people based on race or whatever.
