Representation matters, even in fantasy. Just ask Disney, JK Rowling, right leaning "It's ok to be white!" advocates and left leaning "More brown Mermaids!" progressives. Though they may disagree on who should get represented, all parties involved generally agree that representation seems to matter a whole lot. To say that it doesn't, only in the realm of (generally) cis men, would seem to me like discriminating against men -- not allowing them the same social courtesy/context for forgiveness as women and other groups.
