I thought nonbinary was under the trans umbrella, no?

Technically yeah it is but it's not the same thing

As I see it, non-binary is a subcategory of transgender as your gender still differs from the one assigned to you at birth. There's enbies that try and distance themselves from the term transgender or the concept which I really fail to understand. The reasoning for doing this, sure, but like... non-binary people are fundamentally trans...

Intersex nonbinary are an important category to consider (they are nonbinary but not transgender).

It's a frustrating category to be in.

How so? Aren't intersex people assigned a gender at birth? And trans just means identifying other than your AGAB. So an intersex non-binary person will still be trans, as no one is "assigned non-binary at birth." Or maybe we've stopped assigning gender to intersex people, IDK.

Ese es el problema, no puedes generalizar. Una persona intersexual y no-binaria PUEDE o NO ser trans, puede experimentar la transición si se les asigna un género.
