“Ae” is actually one of the oldest coined non-binary pronouns, originating in the 1920 science fiction novel A Voyage to Arcturus, where it was used to describe members of an alien race. Its oblique and possessive determiner forms are both “aer”, a pun on the alien race being composed of air.
The only result of “vs” I could find in a database of coined pronouns is as a possessive form of “v”, which I’m unsure if has any attestations. However, v/vs could be taken as a spelling or inflectional variant of ve/vis, which was first proposed as a gender-neutral pronoun all the way back in 1864.
Who is confidentially incorrect here? Vs/ae aren’t real pronounces, so he’s right, just an idiot.
The author was referring to their toolset, not their pronouns.
A pronoun may also contain information about one’s toolset.

The top comment confidently believes that “vs/are” in the profile referred to pronouns. They were incorrect.
Technically, the commenter only said they weren’t genders and wouldn’t call them that.
Well, how would you even know they’re aren’t pronouns?
Because the creator said they aren’t.
That was after, no way to know before.
You might even say they were confidently incorrect.

Because its never referred to pronouns.
