It's very simple. You have a word for somebody whose gender identity is different from what they were assigned at birth; so, you also need a word for the opposite of that (somebody whose gender identity is the same as what they were assigned at birth). And no, you can't just call those people "normal".
The word wasn't created in order to reverse a power dynamic or make an oppressor feel oppressed. It was created because you needed a word there.
Backing up the "normal" part of your comment. What's normal anyway? What's deemed to be normal by society. So of course you need a term. Especially in an age where people are informed enough and primed to know about these subjects compared to 10ish years ago. Claiming that CIS is exclusionary is so silly
