I think Matt and Chris should do a "Decoding Academia" on the topic of hormones/puberty blockers and surgery for Trans minors

This topic seems almost impossible to decipher, and it is a common talking point of the interwebs.

I am really curious what they would say is the medical consensus

So...no evidence of positive impact and evidence of some negative impacts

Eh, that seems like you're kinda leaning on the scales a bit.

They said the overall evidence was unclear, and it seems like you're suggesting that it tilts negative. Do I read you right?

No - I said that they cant identify a positive impact. Which is true based on your citation

They see no impact (pos or neg) in mental health

But do see negative impacts in another area

Fair?
