changing his to his/her/there making the sentence harder to read and more wrong

Wow, that makes that sentence harder to read. Also, do you understand the difference between "there" and "their"? (It's totally okay if English is not your native language, BUT if you submit pull requests rephrasing sentences, maybe take the 5 seconds to look up how the words are spelled...!) Create a new PR with "his" changed to "their" and you might be onto something.

Added in 6a78b96 with just "their" now, thanks for pointing it out.

thanks for pointing the mistake out there. I did not pay much grammatical attention to the phrase. I did that PR very quickly, I'll be careful next time.

This issue at least resulted in the other PR, happy on that front. Thanks
