Christ, they could have still had the lezzie character, but she sure as fuck wouldn't have been advertising herself as such.
She simply would have described herself as a spinster who lives with her sister/best friend/whatever. And that would be it. Adults might know. Kids didn't need to.
And questions like "Why didn't you ever get married?" would have fallen entirely within the realm of "None of your business, stop asking rude questions, kid".
Case in point, Hogwarts Legacy, commercial success, has a troon character and full of browns in 1800's Scotland.
At least you can mod the game to remove those.
