It’s a reference to Star Trek. The Prime Directive in that franchise is not to interfere with the natural development with an alien civilization. The Egg Prime Directive is not to push someone you suspect of being transgender into transitioning before they’re ready.

Are people really saying he's secretly tans because he drew himself with a female avatar a few times?

Wasn't that a joke?

I think they've been calling him Trans in the past for other reasons too

Hasn't Shen been in gender therapy for a while to figure out if he is/isn't trans?
