Sunk cost fallacy. Some people have made such a total arse of themselves supporting woobabble anti reality transology that they daren't step back from the cult now. They worry they'll have given up their professional reputation, common sense, decency and all hope of ever being taken seriously again for nothing if they admit that transology woobabble is at best a harmful idealogy with no basis in reality, and at worst a harmful cult.
What they haven't realised is, the second they rubber stamped the woobabble of transology, their reputations started heading down the gurgler, and the longer they hold on to the sinking ship of wokemongering misogyny, the less credibility they can hope to retain.
And of course, some have given up their actual physical health, and functional human bodies, or the healths and bodies of their children. How can they ever admit how they've fucked up people's physical and mental health so badly, for absolutely nothing? Doubling down is the only way they can bear the anguish underneath.
The powerful and influential BBC is usually unwilling to admit that it gets anything wrong and when criticised the BBC tends to become the DDC (Double Down Corporation). Meanwhile, children will continue to be drawn into this nightmare. I wonder whether more brave detransioners like Keira Bell coming into the open might make a dent in this? If only one of the broadcasters would make a documentary about the processes and physical experiences of young people who 'transition' and the damage it does.
She really is a brave young woman. I do hope her courage helps others who were coerced as children into harming themselves to realise they have a right to some sort of justice, and a life beyond what was done to them.
Large sums in compensation might make a difference, not just to the victims but it might cool the enthusiasm of those who promote transology. Money is very much part of this story, if the claims that the trans industry is worth so much is true.
Keira's case, though she did not seek any compensation (review doesn't do that), is a warning shot and NHS are already getting worried. The Review will potentially open the door for compensation claims.

THERE'S A PHRASE FOR IT! Thank you, Alice, I've been looking for this for ages
'Tis an absolutely spectacular phrase for it, I agree
