I dislike it cause I think like a lot of gender neutral stuff it goes the route of trying to be inbetween the binaries rather than separated, and so when actually spoken it sounds way more like “Miss” than “Mister” and IMO that’s just like poor quality and kind of lazy.
And also it kind of has a position as basically the “fine, here you fuckers go” concession title, so if you would prefer something else or just not being titled its not really factored in, because no freedom of expression has been inserted into most processes, its just a slight expansion of the hard boundaries.
If I was forced to pick a title I would have preferred just going revolutionary France and picked citizen, or the equivalent in Swedish, but given the circumstances that would have extremely negative nationalistic connotations.

Yeah, it sucks that there isn’t more choice in most forms
Strong point about Mx/Ms. The central concept is about bucking conventionality, so why hew so close to conventions? Coulda got way crazier with it.
