       @mxsparks some years ago I argued to drop gender as a required field (and title) on a system we were deploying. This was probably the smallest change that year, but required c-suite to sign off on it as no-one wanted to approve it (and I kept pushing). Afaik they are still optional and I know while I was still on the project we never found a reason to change it back. We also deployed aliases on email addresses to support name changes (got that approved because people get married and change)
