No-one really cares about the individuals, its moreso about the aggregate. I think it would be interesting from a public policy perspective to know how many LGBTQI+ people live in Australia, Capital Cities, "The Regions", areas of low/high socioeconomic standing. We could actually have informed debate about these issues. This is also a problem with nationality as well, I'm not bothered if my neighbour is a homosexual transgender from China, but if we find a majority of immigrants from a certain country or region are living in an area of low socioeconomic standing maybe that group are disadvantaged in some way. Maybe they need better language support or help finding a job. At the end of the day it's to give governments the opportunity to govern Australia in a way that is effective, or they can completely ignore it like the Liberals seem to.
