Deut 22: 5 technically was speaking about women wearing men's ARMOUR and military gear, since this is how pagans worshiped Dianna, while men dressed up like women. That is how Deut 22 is involved in the cross-dressing issue. MAN in the verse, describing the clothing of a man, is WARRIOR in Hebrew. Not simply male. So, the similarity in robes was not the differentiating factor. It was the issue of male WARRIORS and women, hence ARMOUR versus feminine attire. Armour was quite different from a robe.

Wow, didn't they have women warriors or those that fought in battle?

Deborah was a rarity. But the point is the MAN in the context in Hebrew is a MALE WARRIOR.
