My friend (who also has a biology degree) suggested a crispr like situation in which the Y chromosome is deactivated in the embryo (not sure exact timing, my degree is in economics). I dunno if a single X chromosome would result in a girl, but she seems to be mostly prepubescent so presumably any fertility issues won’t have been noticed yet.

Also dunno if this would impact “purity” but…who knows. It doesn’t have to be perfect, technology is different in canon.

And I read some interview where (I think Filoni) said hyper speed travels at the speed of plot.

Or... plot twist, omega is a copy of Jango and so a genetic male, but has been referred to as a girl since the start. As she's a kid, it's still hideable.

Then she hits puberty, realises the disconnect and decides to be a genetic male identifying as a girl. Disney diversity squad happy and its just side enough to not have the woke background define the character, which is good for the mass audience.
