The silliest part is that the site already has canonical pronouns for the NPCs - some are listed right on their shop/post description (like if you hover over the icon on the selection page), and some are just confirmed via staff posts - but they all are out there. The suggestion is just to have them displayed somewhere more clearly.
If someone wants to call Galore she/her because that's their headcanon, like whatever - but they're already going against established site lore, and that information being more prominent doesn't change that.
(Also, this is just a me thing and probably overthinking but - it's weird to me when people are super insistent and defensive about their headcanons being more important than canon lore, at least in cases of smaller projects like these where you have pretty much direct contact with the character's creators. Particularly given FR is making an effort to have diverse characters, so it's not like we're severely lacking representation. Like, it's fine to have fun and create headcanons about characters, but it doesn't trump the canon lore and your headcanons aren't more valid than it. I doubt staff cares or is bothered by it to be fair, but if I told someone my nonbinary dragon's pronouns were they/them and they said 'oh but I get such feminine energy from them, so I'm gonna headcanon that they use she/her' or something and tried arguing with me about my own character's pronouns or gender identity, I'd be like what the fuck and block that person lmao.)
