It's actually not even explaining anything I imagined. It's explaining, that some people want others to capitalize the pronouns used to refer to them specifically. I was thinking of a grammatical choice to always or never capitalize pronouns uniformly. But changing grammar rules on the whims of the person being written about, seems exceptionally odd. The closest I ever heard of to that, is in the spelling someone's name.

In reality it doesn't explain anything other than to say, some people want it that way. It never goes into actually explaining the logic of that desire. It merely tries to shame people for not doing it if requested.

I use capitalised pronouns because I like them. That's what the article explains. The reasons that people like their preferred pronouns don't tend to go any deeper than that.

Maybe a story will feel more complete: 4 years ago, while My goddess-mother was helping Me understand My gender, She suggested I try out capitalised pronouns. I did, and I liked them. As good as she/her felt compared to using he/him, that's how They/Them felt compared to she/her. I liked them, so I kept them.
