I contacted pilowsky for clarification. His suggestion is that we get rid of the sexist language like "his clubs" in bidding explanations.

I tried asking GIB for its preferred pronouns, it didn't give a clear answer.

I just checked the code, this is the only explanation that has "his" in it, out of over 400 textual explanations.

It may be stretching the meaning of "explanations" to describe the words that GIB offers about its bidding, but it's good to know he doesn't assert his male privilege too often!
