so it looks like a cis person can complain about a trans person using shared facilities, but that ensuring that specific person isn’t using the same facilities at the same time as the trans person is a reasonable way to deal with that
(the rest is process stuff that doesn’t really matter)

This is how you end up in a world where journalists self-censor before anyone even has to write a legal letter. So thinking about it in pure terms of who would win/lose in court is a misunderstanding of the phenomenon, and why GCs have been so successful.

This is why it's important to understand what's going on. Not about accepting cowardice – but a proper analysis. Journalists are told by their editors across the country they cannot criticise Rowling. Not because they would lose a case, or would even sue, but because she has built up a latent fear.
I get where you're coming from- it's the same thing Rowling does with libel threats. The idea is to grind everyone down.

Kishwer Falkner, the former EHRC chair, is on Sky saying the Labour government is anti-women, citing not just trans issues but also grooming gangs and what she calls pandering to Islam and racial sensitivities. She's not exactly dispelling the idea she was a political actor when she led the EHRC.
