It's pretty invasive how cis people take it upon themselves to lecture trans people on what they believe isn't transphobia, to the point that they'll say "sure, this person wants you and everyone like you to die, but they said they support a few critical rights for trans people"
"Sure, he defends a well known conversion therapist, and argues that trans kids can't really be sure they're really trans, but he never *said* he supported conversion therapy, so you can't say he does."
"Sure she said trans women are a threat to cis women and girls but she also said she'd march in a trans rights parade so how can you say she's transphobic?"
Anyway since cis people are extremely fast to defend any transphobic take no matter how virulently cruel it is, as long as the person making the take said "trans rights" at some point in the take, they can't be trusted to identify transphobia.
