I know multiple non-binary people, they prefer to be called "they"

The zer/zim/ etc stuff seems to be more closely tied to the terminally online folks that don't go outside their bubbles and want to feel unique and tie their personality around it.

My friends don't want to be special snowflakes, they just want to be called a pronoun that doesn't make them uncomfortable. Saying "they" isn't learning new terms.

Not trying to be confrontational, just giving some context with my little anecdotal evidence.

Edit: i should say, I'm talking about 30 ish year old people, I don't have experience with kids in schools and what they are up to.
