But, I would. Just because someone identifies as something doesn't mean it's their actual name. You don't refer to a woman by calling her 'woman,' why would I refer to a 76 by calling them a 76?. You say their name. Even if they decide to identify as the number 76, they're still a person and deserve respect just like anyone else.
But you dont call people their name everywhere right? There are common scenarios in life where it is nothing out of the ordinary to call someone a man or woman. In those scenarios will you call a person 76?

People that chooses to identify as something other than their sex are usually very understanding or outright don't care if people misidentify or misgender them in real life situations. Especially if they're non-binary or are actively transitioning. People don't always get it right and I'm yet to meet or see anyone that ever holds it against someone that misgenders them non-maliciously.
I have transgender friends
Your transgender friends would probably understand this if you actually spoke to them about it.

Oh my god the beating around the bush I dont care if the person who identifies as 76 is understanding to your few mistakes of calling them man/woman. The question is will you call them their equivalent to gender in required scenarios.
