tbf i get the intent of your post, it makes a good point in how enby identities are sometimes overlooked. i think for this post it suits.

that said, in a world where AGABs no longer matter, perhaps “nonbinary people who start to appear less masculine” might work?
It leaves in the middle what their original AGAB was, but does make clear why people mistakingly may believe someone is a trans woman, when they are not…
