It's simply a matter of a change in dynamics. Yeah fans may be a tad confused by the new convention but it's not dogmatically changing. Toads aren't suddenly the new goombas or anything. They just are now genderless. It's different from the past but as the Marioverse continues to evolve change is inevitable and as fans have in the past they will accept whatever changes come their way. Not to mention they don't really have a choice. They can pretend it's not there, but it's there.
