In french, we don't have gender neutral ''they'' its either ''ils'' for men or ''elles'' for female. If a group of people are mixed genders, they are called ''ils''. I really don't think it offend people that much... that would be pushed isn't it?
Also, everything has a gender, a table is feminine, a chair is feminine, a hammer is masculin etc... there is no rules, and I already sees some issues in my game in the translation, with using the name sometime instead of the pronouns, it makes the sentence weird and hard to read. That being said, I don't see a huge problem with using the name instead of pronouns, but I don't want more of this gender problematic in my game.
No thank you, I love my language, and the special rules that applies to it.
There are always something we could point out about every languages, or gendered roles etc... but at the end of the day, thats to each individual to work on themself to get over small thing like this. Does it really affect your life to the point you need to change to world and annoye people over it? Ill be real here, yes it can be in the end annoying those type of issue, when it touches almost no one. Its hard to make it an issue really, but for some people it is...?
Like in french, when we talk about nurses, we think female (because they are majority in this trade) so we always talk about nurse like ''infirmières'' instead of the masculine name ''infirmiers'', and if I was myself a nurse, I would not mind people thinking like that because I would not be in majority... there is nothing wrong really.
Same for firefigther, in french '' pompiers''. When people talk in general about firefighter, they says ''pompiers'' because they are majority males, instead of ''pompières'', the female version. Again, nothing wrong about it.
