You’re right. Words like “I” are gender neutral.

For that reason, speaking in the third person like Bot is doing doesn’t make sense to me (as a trans person myself). I can’t think of any motive for someone to want others to constantly refer to them in the third person…

Looking at Bot’s comment history, they only decided to speak in the third person today after having spoken normally just yesterday. I’m not making any accusations, I just want to highlight that fact.
