Nobody would do it at the amateure level but at the Olympic level they might. Anyway the argument is usally that it puts players that were born female at a disadvantage and basically negates the reason why we separated men’s and women’s sports in the first place. If you are playing for fun it’s not a big deal but at some point sports becomes about money and fame, then it’s quite cutthroat.
