Regardless of if it's meant to be a flex term or not, it will be, and given how gender and sex for many people is holistic and unified, an insistence to police transsexual to mean "has gone through medical transition" merely serves to disregard people who are a sex other than they were assigned at birth, but did not get some surgery/procedure as they did not see it as necessary for their view of it. Transsexual must include a holistic concept of sex in its definition of it will only ever be a flex term... And if you consider its historical usage seemed pretty vague and inclusive (anyone who are trans their sex whatever that means), it seems ahistorical to retcon it- It would be analogous to identifying as bi because you are attracted to only two genders or something.
