Is it just a Hollywood thing? What are the rules?

If you look up movies starring Ellen Page they changed her name to Elliott in listings....."Juno starring Eliot Page about a teen girl who chooses adoption over aborting her baby."
Did they change all the Olympic medals Bruce Jenner won to Caitlyn Jenner?
When someone transitions is the person before the transition non existent?

The answer to your last questions is "apparently". After all, they have been removing statues of men who made substantial contributions based on things that were considered acceptable for their time. It's as if the contribution to society that was made no longer exists when compared with current societal "norms". If there is such a thing.

I contend that what is now considered acceptable for some is still quite outlandish for others. It's like saying a married woman who changes their name to that of their spouse suddenly loses their past identity. Their single self no longer exists.

Society is f*cked.
