The only thing to avoid is dogmatism. I imagine people start feeling insecure because there isn't anymore a fixed point of reference - delusionary as it might have been. This is not a privilege of transgender issues, but a characteristic of postmodernism. It would be important if people started to communicate now, before it's too late to communicate - a situation which many people may already be anticipating. I guess we all still have some.
Dogmatic answers are non-answers after all, they are just the closure of conversation by force.
The answer to this is twofold. This will only be known for sure when transgender studies are more advanced. I would be happy to see transgender and non-transgender people involved in that discussion, in transgender studies, just to have many points of view represented.
