Exactly.
Well ... no. People are called Baker because some ancestor was a baker. Then over time the link from the name to the occupation got lost.
Just as we might have "derive[d] pronouns from that" but are currently on the same way as with "Baker" - removing the word from it's physical beginnings.
Then in the end words are a tool and not a thing by their own - as evidenced that you can hardly read a 500 year old text - including your pronouns, that were different back then.
If it helps - at least one party - communication to use different/new pronouns, this is where language will go.
