I was originally going to ask how many legal genders there should be, but I fail to see a compelling argument against 0.

I mostly agree with you, but it's not like overdoses caused by medical errors don't ever happen either. Because it has a longer half-life (due to biological women commonly having a higher percentage of body fat compared to biological men, for example), medication levels can build up (as you mentioned) and result in adverse effects if you make a mistake with dosing. Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics do matter too.

Just because it's not common (because physicians are trained to handle it appropriately) doesn't mean it's not possible.

Like you said, demographics (including age, biological sex, etc) do matter.
