probably the trippyëst thing about singular they for me is that it expressly only works for animate references, even though plural they has no such distinction.

so you can't use "they" to describe a pencil. but you CAN use "they" two describe TWO pencils.

@witchfynder_finder @kibi you could also argue that the /n/ in "an" would assimilate in the phrase "an night", producing /æn'ɒɪ̞t/
