As a matter of statistical certainty (as opposed to absolute certainty), dimorphic is correct. I happen to subscribe to bimodal - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLH-y2nLocw
but I understand why the dimorphic viewpoint has utility. There are exceptional individuals, in every population. Just like there is a non-zero chance that a baseball thrown at a wall will pass through a wall due to a quirk of quantum fluctuation (10^-10^32 chance or whatever), the utility of the differentiation point is a matter of perspective (including intent). Bimodal does not exclude these individuals, but does imply the spectrum has limits (which it does). Arguing about what two people, of differing perspective, think won't change either's views without associating a utility that has not been considered. |

For the record, various studies conclude the ratio of individuals that are neither 46,XX nor 46,XY as being anywhere between 0.02% to 1.3% of the population. Or roughly 10^30 more likely than throwing a baseball through a solid wall (based on your stated likelihood).
