I don't know about this theory but I've entertained it and personally have rejected it.
My issue isn't the theory it's the practice.
In practice the non binary suffer as much angst and statistics show that suicide rates are just as high as the unhappy binaries.
Moral of the story is that we need to teach people how to accept the unchangeable. Genetics and biology has its shortfalls but this has moved beyond what people call a gender construct and has resulted in a trans construct.
Where I think it falls over is the definition of male and female. Hannah is a male in every way we all are just prefers to think of themselves as a female.
That's a brain issue not a biological one. Teach her to be happy in herself as a male and you increase the chance she will find happiness. Or you can let her be a parody of what she believes is a female even though it's just a bloke wearing a skirt, and you end up annoying everyone.
