It's because "straight" is a term idiots like themselves invented at a time where straight meant "good" and "not broken".

Im contrast, "cis" was coined by smart people to accurately describe them with no inherent bias or value judgment. They hate that sort of thing.

Cos wasn't coined for anything even remotely related to sex or gender. It's just the Latin opposite of trans. Which honestly just makes whinging about the term from reactionaries like Musty all the more ridiculous.
