Even for gender cishet people a Dylan, Casey or Sam might be a "he/him" or "she/her" and its just not obvious from the name.

So?

Does that mean we all have to waste our time with pronouns?

I can think of only one time I thought a female was a male from their name. It was not a problem. The name was Noel

Seems like the name argument is no argument at all

waste our time with pronouns?

What does this even mean?

Why use pronoun when no pronoun do trick?

Pronouns are optional. Nobody is forcing you to list them.
