On the one hand, it is interesting and possibly valuable to know what abnormal conditions a world figure had. It could make people with similar conditions more comfortable with themselves in society at large.

On the other, I don't know if many people benefit from knowing Hitler's downstairs details. He's a bad guy to most, and genital abnormalities didn't seemingly have anything to do with his actions. One might say he was insecure and aggressive as a result, but that's speculative and ignores mountains of other verfiable "reasons" Hitler was an asshole.
