/u/Lionoras on The sexualization of the LGBT/GRSM community is horrible
I'm not so on track with the manga, but I feel that you can generally interpret pretty much anything into Saiki.
In the series, he doesn't have direct interest because, as he states himself, can't really even see women (or anyone) normally. He sees them as creepy muscle things. And generally, he always worries so much about staying under the radar that you of course don't get a normal teen-boy experience.
That way you could read him as aro/ace or just blinded by his powers. That's why the show is also partially funny; often Saiki misreads peoples intentions and gets more or less manipulated into friendships & other stuff. With sometimes throwing in moments that can be read as bonding, or romantic or not.
Regarding the shapeshifting thing... I'm not sure if you can see that as him being trans. Because he changed his body unconsciously. Just because he doesn't care also doesn't really make him nonbinary and in general he seems pretty fine with being a guy.
So yeah, I agree with you
