I think that's far too generous. It tries to justify her hate. I think it's far more likely she's just a conservative asshole. Most anti-trans people have never even had a conversation with a trans person. Ignorance is the true source of hate, not betrayal.
Lots of people interact with trans folks on a daily basis and have no idea. I'd bet she encountered someone trans at some point in her life and had no idea.
But your point 100% stands and I agree with it
