I’m not a native English speaker myself, and I don’t live in a place with a majority of native speakers, so maybe that’s why. I got confused reading your comment as I thought that you were talking about something that I missed from the article (a link, or something else), thus I shared this feedback.
Though I’m not sure why people downvoted my comment. I haven’t expressed anything against the use of neutral pronouns (though that’s unexpected when the author is clearly a man). And I clearly specified that was a detail, not something to give importance to.
