I really have problems following through this complex discussion. But if pronouns are such an issue, this proves that too many discussions on StackExchange are about people and not about technical issues. They should focus again on technical issues and also find ways to reward questions and answers about really specific issues. It could be observation bias but it seems that questions/answers on very generic topics get most upvotes, although these things can usually also be found on other websites easily and with more detail.

> this proves that too many discussions on StackExchange are about people and not about technical issues ... They should focus again on technical issues StackExchange is a network of Q+A sites covering a diverse range of topics, many of which are non-technical by design. I think you might be confusing StackOverflow, the original and most popular technically-focused programming Q+A site, with the broader collection of Q+A sites this policy is addressing. Unless you're suggesting that all non-technical StackExchange sites should be shut down, which is a bit more drastic.
