To Frank, the thing is they HAVE genders. They just lose them via being mid round or having maint done.
Letting them have genders isn't going to make "cyber rights!!!11!" Its going to be letting a sapient and sentient character played by a real human get a 2-3 letter description of their choice when doing things in an 18 year old game.
To be honest i see no reason anyone can't change their gender identity at will. All of this guff over nouns seems odd
Going further still, borgs are that. Borgs. Cyborgs. A human made mechanical, partially. Theres zero lore indication the original person is gone or deleted. They're just compelled to follow the same rules everyone is. Don't kill peeps. Do what your boss says. Work. Try not to die.
If we want them to be entirely mechanical make ghost brains.
