I made one point that women (apparently) apply less to something with X language even if the language describes them. Then I made a completely separate, personal experience anecdote of how I feel when I'm exposed to that language because of what it tells me about the culture. I didn't link my personal experience to that of a gendered experience representative of anything broadly, you did.

My point was that if this hypothetical company, in the interest of inclusiveness, modified the language in their job postings to be less masculine-coded, they would be actively destroying useful information that you and I would use to pass them over.
