tl;dw: AMAB and AFAB can be useful in certain contexts, but it's:
Brought up too often in contexts it doesn't matter. ASAB should be offered up consensually by the person, never volunteered on their behalf.
Often used as shorthand for other things that would be better to talk about directly. For example, a GP needs to know if they have a prostate, a support group wants people that experienced misogyny as a child, a partner asking if they bottom, etc.
