Nothing in the article suggests that the individual in question is intersex. They have a very clearly defined sex. It is preposterous that the government would adopt a stance of official ignorance in this respect.

We can disagree on if trans people should be allowed to choose no sex, but intersex people should be allowed to choose ambigous / no sex as they may literally not have one (XXY chromosones etc).

Therefore it makes sense for the government to offically allow it, and if we allow people to change from male to female and female to male, why not either to no sex?

Just a note: Having XXY chromosomes does not make you without sex. You'd be male, unless there is something else wrong.
