    inclusive language is more meant to adress professions and how you adress a person.
    the use of different genders is completely arbitrary and every language that has them took advantage of it in a few situations to reduce the needed lexicon

      Yeah, but that is only because we want it to work only for that, we have the potential to use to eliminate gendered nouns; the system is the same. And yes, it is arbitrary, and I am a native Spanish speaker and I can assure you the possible advantages are not bigger than the advantages of a simplified Spanish, the homonyms can be identified from context anyway.
