GENDER

Why do you want not to use it?

Because it's of no use in languages without genders. It's like using {{GRAMMAR}} everywhere to provide word in nominative case.

The comparison does not stand because we don't use GENDER on any and all words. If it is not broken, don't fix it: unless you're able to describe some harm produced by it, the way to translate is what described in Gender.

Hm, e.g. here I have to write "{{GENDER:$1|lingiti}}", but as this doesn't really involve gender based option, I could write simply "lingiti". Indeed it's not broken, I'm just suggesting to have translation more flexible.
