No, it's not an unfortunate coincidence, it's a symptom of the condition. A child born with congenital adrenal hyperplasia will likely be a lesbian, but given this treatment their orientation potential will return to be more "normal" (towards that of the general population).

It is removing a harmful thing, but the harmful things includes a much higher tendency towards becoming homosexual.

Your last statement really kills your entire post...

Why? Homosexuality under regular conditions is a perfectly fine thing, not harmful at all. But when it comes as part of a condition which affects  person's sexuality in such a manner as CAH it is a harmful thing to their well being.

Basically the homosexuality in CAH isn't really natural, it's a symptom of the condition, and therefore different from regular homosexuality. It's not the same.

What does this mean? How do you know the same mechanism isn't involved in "natural" or "regular" homosexuality (whatever that is), namely that the sexual part of the brain is subject to altered hormonal regulation under a critical stage of fetal development?
