Pride (in the name of love)

Item 5 covers the "tipulation that all stewards receive Trans
awareness training from a recognized organization". Setting aside the
obvious question of why this wasn't provided previously, my
interpretation is that this training will be half-hearted at best.
Maybe I misunderstand, but "documentation that can be presented to
stewards as part of their training by our respective contractors"
sounds as if the training will consist of no more than giving the
stewards an A4 printout, which they'll be expected to read and
understand for themselves. Nothing about, say, a practical tuition
session for stewards - and Item 6 makes it very clear that Pride
themselves won't be offering training.
