I literally was just talking about this earlier today. I don't know what the tipping point was officially but a lot of reviews of stuff this week (Starfield comes to mind) came with excuses on why pronoun selection isn't that big of a deal and you are wrong if you have a problem with it.
People who acknowledge they "don't like pronouns" or 'think they are dumb" but in the next breath say it's stupid to complain about it or even mention it.
Exactly. It's all deliberate because they know it inches the Overton Window ever-so-slightly to the Left.
Five years from now they'll start trying to add stuff to normalise MAPs in games/comics/etc., and when people complain about it the Lefties will yell out that it's normal and that the people "screeching about MAPs are just bigots!"
I'm seeing that tactic play out with recent game releases.
"I'm not buying this game because the woke politics injected into it ruins my escapism."
Today the response is "Lol why are you so butthurt about a character creation screen? You're obviously a crazy bigot."
Tomorrow it will be "You're in violation of anti-genderphobe laws and the police have been notified"...though some countries have that today.

If it wasn't important they wouldn't do it. Adding pronouns in the case of Starfield.
