Niel refuses to admit that biological men have an advantage in sports in general, and side-steps the question, which even made Andrew Sullivan frustrated, and they addressed that during the main show.

Niel is happy to do this for non-controversial facts like astronomy, which is his wheelhouse, but not on things like basic biology. Bill has no use for pandering science communicators who are too afraid to say the true thing because the left might try and cancel them. THAT is why Bill and Niel had it out at the end.

It wasn't absolute and when people call it, scientists must man up and own their mistakes. Look at the interactions between rand paul and fauci.
