    "cis" I feel like it's an extra term for "straight"

    This alone would earn them a "shut the fuck up" from me. If they can't even be bothered to look up basic terms then I can't be bothered to give them anything but derision.

    To me it's like if I say I enjoyed the sunrise" and someone says, "you mean the Earth sunrise?"

    Yeah no shit because everyone lives on Earth right now. If people were experiencing sunrises from non-Earth viewpoints, I would absolutely expect the distinction to start being made between different kinds of sunrises. Like consider why "landline telephones" used to just be called "telephones," or "analog clocks" used to just be called "clocks," or "acoustic guitars" used to just be called "guitars," and why all of those terms have had extra words applied to them.
