It doesn’t need to be added, I would sooner call Luke A a man than a transman, and I’d sooner call Luke S a man than a cisman.. and I think the majority of the country would too.
But sometimes situations will arise where people may need or want to talk about men who have transistioned from females and the word ‘man’ on its own would not be helpful in that scenario... and vice versa.
