No one speaks in middle english. Dead language rules and customs are irrelevant to modern language norms.

This train of thought makes no sense. The fact that something originated in Old English doesn't at all mean it's dead. He/She also originated in Old English, just a little later. Should I make fun of people using he/him, she/her pronouns because they're "clinging to Olde Anglishe"? lol

No one made that claim.

Your comment is non sequitor

Using they/them as a neutral pronoun is not dead and never died...
