'is it disrespectful to compare them to Otherkin?'
That comparison usually goes the other way around - trying to legitimise otherkin experiences by comparing them to trans experiences. I for one wouldn't do it the other way around, for reasons that I hope are pretty obvious.
Also, that FAQ is a bit no. 'Transgendered people feel they were born into a body of the wrong gender' is a huge oversimplification/overgeneralisation of what being trans means, to the point of being harmful.
