Spanish term or phrase: que ilumina la perspectiva interseccional aplicada en sentido estricto

This final phrase has me really scratching my head. My translation below is meaningless to me **relative to what came before it**. Insights will be greatly appreciated!

Asimismo, cabe destacar que la desagregación por sexo y edad no es suficiente, no sólo porque no recupera la diversidad de vulnerabilidades que se integran complejamente en la vida de las personas sino también porque seguir enfocando en el sexo de este modo supone una concepción binaria del sexo, una lectura del género como derivado del sexo que omite el continuo de género (Clow, 2009: 11) y una invisibilización de la diversidad de hombres y mujeres **que ilumina la perspectiva interseccional aplicada en sentido estricto**.

My translation:
Continued focus on the binary concept of sex fosters a reading of gender as a derivative of sex that fails to capture the continuum of gender (Clow, 2009:11) and masks the diversity of men and women that casts light on the intersectional perspective in its sensu stricto.

BTW, the author uses 'intersectional' a lot in reference to gender. I'm wondering if here it means 'cross-sectional'.

English translation:that [inspires] the strict application of intersectional analysis

Explanation:
Sigo sin estar convencido de que inspires sea la mejor opción pero no se me ocurre otra mejor. Y el fraseo planteado tal vez pueda inducir a error después de todo; lo que la diversidad "inspira" no es la aplicación estricta sino la propia perspectiva interseccional, aplicada en sentido estricto.
Tal vez entonces,
(...) that inspires intersectional analysis when strictly applied

En fin, espero te sirva.

Y por cierto, mi interés no era tanto el de que reabrieses la pregunta como el de mantener abierto el debate sobre el original y su posible traducción al inglés, por la posibilidad de ver otras soluciones y/o lecturas, particularmente de más nativos ingleses, ya que me parece muy interesante este caso precisamente por su aparente complejidad.

¡Saludos!

Gracias, Muriel.
Tal vez resulte en exceso sutil, pero como comentado en respuesta, that inspires intersectional analysis when strictly applied (u otro fraseo equivalente que resulte más natural en inglés) quizá podría ajustarse mejor al original que la planteada inicialmente.

I closed it because I felt I had come up with a good solution. But I'm open to more ideas. This is what I came up with:

'and conceals, rather than illuminates, the diversity of men and women that represents the intersectional perspective in its true sense'

But I like Chema's answer even better.

Lástima que hayas cerrado la pregunta. Muy interesante.

Por resumir, diría que es la diversidad la que "ilumina" la perspectiva interseccional, particularmente cuando aplicada en sentido estricto, contraviniendo así la invisibilización aludida fruto de una desagregación dicotómica de otros análisis de género.

(...) and masks the very diversity of men and women that [inspires] the strict application of intersectional analysis

* ilumina con el sentido de mostrar el camino, motivar, inspirar.
* interesectional analysis, intersectionality theory

I think the original is contradictory

While Liz's answer helped me think the problem through, I came up with a different solution. For now, I'm saying:
'...and conceals, rather than illuminates, the diversity of men and women that represents the intersectional perspective in its true sense'
I am querying the author. If I hear back, I will let you know what she says.

A thought

I'm looking at it again. Maybe the author does mean 'cast light', in contrast to the invisibility of diversity resulting from lack of disaggregated data. Revealing the details brings the intersectional perspective to light.
