why does everyone use he for anyone

#1

if there is a sage and a phoenix left and you say hes on your right im gonna assume its phoenix and get wrecked by his flash like it doesnt even make sense before you realize women play

Agreed. This is so dumb it drives me crazy
If we know which one is on the right, say the agent name: "Sage on your right" or "Phoenix on your right"
If we don't, just say "one on your right"
Clears up any possible misconceptions

I use agent call outs or number call outs like "1 on the right".

Using pronouns is useless imo

well the pros know each other for the most part and will just call them by name (even tho coaches try to discourage this so they dont think about who they are playing if its like aspas or something)

in game? most likely no one will care + "he" has a more gender neutral connotation when used in comms

it comes from a concept called the "generic masculine" when ones gender is not of concern . It a pretty old thing that can easily exclude woman but when saying something short it still can be easily used :)
