This is a fascinating take that I think explains a phenomenon I've seen recently. It used to be that many young, inexperienced slash fans would default to anal as an awkward proxy for PIV because they either a) didn't know how else (cis) gay men had sex or b) didn't know how to make it sound sexy. Then, as they got older and/or more sexually experienced/educated, and learned more about the ways (cis) gay people do spontaneous, mutually pleasurable sex acts (e.g., mutual masturbation) and that this can be as or more erotic than PIV, depending on your perspective, their fics start to feature more types of sex and start to resemble (cis) gay relationships more accurately. If penetration is featured at all, it's a Thing, and if happens to be spontaneous, it's described as as awkward as it would be (and that becomes part of the intent or appeal).

I can't say I really see that anymore (though maybe I haven't given it enough time) and maybe you've elucidated why: it's easier to smash the Staples easy button of "one is trans, so they just have PIV!" to emulate the het PIV they're already culturally/socially familiar with than learn or think about how cis gay people fuck. I've seen a version of this this from the futa side of dude!fandom for ages "I can't relate to it or understand how its pleasurable unless there's a dick involved" or "it's awkward and takes too much prep" as a rationalization for why cis yuri doesn't do it for them.

(Which, speaking as a cis lesbian is lol, lmao but if your sexual imagination begins and ends in PIV as far as "spontaneous and mutual" goes, I suppose that is what it is. Not surprised there are straight women and trans queer people who feel the same.)
