Material difference of specific pronouns? Someone feels better, and I'm out no extra effort, I guess...
It's as much difference as personal preference in chocolate bar brands.
I totally get respecting specific pronouns, no confusion there.
I don't see how the scenario presented in OP is different from wanting to be referred to in the third person.
Ah! Effectively none.
Which does bring up an unusual case: how should drag be referred to as part of a group? They and drag? Or would just they suffice?
Some degree of identity erasure is inherent with mass pronouns; interesting question!
