A dude in a dress getting mad at people for not calling them a woman is just so fucking selfish and entitled I just can't understand it.
Generally, I tend to follow the IETF guidance on protocol - be conservative in what you transmit, be liberal in what you accept. If someone wants to be known by a particular gender, go for it. You are deliberately trying to wind someone up by using a different pronoun, it's not surpring they get grumpy. What harm does it do to you? None.
But if you accidentally do it, I agree it's probably not something to get mad over, just something to correct you on.

And do you ever intentionally misgender cis people and refuse to use their legal names because they don’t measure up to some standard of yours, or do you reserve that shittiness for trans people exclusively?

Sure do. Accidentally called my cycling instructor Ma'am during a cycling class. Said "Yes Ma'am" when I meant Sir. You know what he did? He laughed. Because he's not retarded fighting some imaginary war against the pp in his pants.

Sure don’t then. You openly admitted it was an accident, you just wanted to share the story so you could call trans people “retarded”.
We both know what would happen if you deliberately misgendered him and flatly refused to use his actual name because you decided your take on them was more important than their identity.
But you won’t, because he’s not on your list of people you consider it socially acceptable to be a cunt to.
