    Has this ever actually caused trouble?

    Technical trouble? Of course not. But socially – all the time. Most people, for some reason, think that the toilet sex division is important. Try to enter the wrong door and you’ll see it by yourself. While men mostly don’t mind if a woman runs in man toilet, women can be really angry at men running into theirs.

    Why? I don’t know.

      If that were the rationale, it would make no sense to rule that trans women must use the men’s toilet and trans men must use the women’s. That’s a recipe for exactly the discomfort you describe.
