The 2006 show Legion of Superheroes actually did that, for an alien cyborg that was heavily implied to have two consciousnesses in one body (complete with constantly shifting between two different voice actors). I don't recall anybody having an issue with that choice - but it helped that 2006 is before a lot of this nonsense took off in the first place, and nobody would interpret a character being referred to as 'they' as anything other than sci-fi weirdness.
Yeah. The thing is that you didn't yet have the social context where becoming a dual-consciousness cyborg is reinforced with love-bombing propaganda & multi-billion dollar medical establishment
Exactly - I sometimes think that our stories had more freedom to be weird when there was a clearer divide between fantasy and reality.
