They felt like it? Their brain worded the thought using “his or her”?
Yes, of course, nothing wrong there. I’m asking what’s wrong with using “they” instead, given that there seems to be some pushback
I think the pushback is coming from that’s how the person talk and or wanted to write the sentenc. Why was it so important to you to tell him a different way to write his sentence?
I wanted to offer a suggestion I felt is better for two independent reasons. I didn’t say “you should have said”, simply wrote why I consider the more inclusive they more convenient too.
I don’t think there was any active “want” behind that way of writing so much as habit (“how the person talks”). Somehow a lot of people seem bent on opposing that suggestion though, and while I don’t want to make assumptions, I’m starting to think it isn’t out of some deep disdain for convenience.
