Anyone else notice, that the writer of this article went out of his or her way, to avoid any gender pronouns for the individual causing the disturbance?

Journalists seem to do that more and more lately, almost as if it’s in a manual. However, this was early in the article, “ the man tried to charge into the cockpit.” So at least we know it was a “he”.

I saw “man” once in the first paragraph. Probably an AI generated story.

*the person
...over the edge.

Using the plural to refer to the singular?
Serious torture of the english language.

Nothing shady about this style sheet at all. Move along.
