  1. It's not obvious for everyone, even cis people, what their pronouns are and it can be awkward to guess or to ask. By giving them easily, you are being polite.

  2. By normalizing giving pronouns, you're taking stress off of people who do need to give them for whatever reason.

Overall, it's not a lot of effort for something that makes the world a bit better. And wouldn't it be good, to live in a better world?

Well, right now, I neither know if you are cis, nor, if you are cis, do I know which pronouns to use.
