I agree that using them/they makes the page rather confusing, but as Captain has no canon gender there really isn't much else that can be done. Calling Captain "he/him" would not be accurate, and calling Captain "she/her" wouldn't be accurate either. Calling Captain by gender specific pronouns could just make the page outright misleading for people who do not realize that Captain has no canon gender. Politics has nothing to do with this, and there's no agenda. If Captain had a canonical gender (say for example, that despite having the option to make them a female, picking male is the confirmed canon option), then I'd agree. But this is about making it accurate to canon and in canon Captain is not a "he" nor a "she".
