Point1: I agree
Point 2: No, they dont have a huge developmental issue leading to hormone difficulties, generally speaking. That is just a portion of people with gender dysphoria in the same way a portion of LGB also have these (as well as a portion as cis hetero people). You also havent explained any way at all that being trans is dangerous yet so dont use that as an argument until there is reason to believe it is.
Point 3: Wow I have to do this again really?
Gender dysphoria is having a different gender identity to your physical gender. Gender identity is not thinking youre physically another gender like you seem to think its the gender you believe you should be please make sure you understand that
Point 4: As was stated above the point of this is to discuss whether trans (note not gender dysphoria) is a mental illness. You cant use "trans is a mental illness" to prove that trans is a mental illness and the reason behind suicides is still sociatal pressure, which is why trams suicide rates are not higher than the rest of LGBT.
Point 5: Again youre using "trans is a mental illness" to argue that trans is a mental illness, that is not a logical argument. Until you can justify treating it, dont try to argue that you will.
Also psychiatrists only treat the depression part, maybe theres a reason? If you still think you should treat both, take it up with a professional
Point 6: From whats above, particularly you still not knowing what the condition is, its pretty evident you havent been doing any reading yourself.
