Transgender person on Pretty Little Liars

🐦
I searched to see if this topic has been discussed before and didn't find it, so apologies if this post is a dupe.
On the show Pretty Little Liars there is a transgender character: Cece Drake. 
The character (Cece) is transgender, but the actress who plays her (Vanessa Ray), is cisgender.
Do you think PLL should have casted a transgender actress instead of a cisgender one? Explain.
