"They" formally used as a gender-neutral pronoun

As you can see, I have been bouncing around the entertainment news this morning. It is one of those things in which I occasionally take guilty pleasure.

Whilst browsing about this morning, I found an article with this editor note:

"This article uses "they" as a gender-neutral, singular pronoun in an effort to respect the young Jolie-Pitt's gender identity, whatever that may end up being."

I thought some of the gardeners would be interested in this based on our Compassionate Language presentation and discussion earlier this year.
