Oh yes, the good ol' "singular they" debate. Traditionally, in the English language, "they" has usually been a plural pronoun, but in recent years there's been more tolerance for the use of "they" as a singular pronoun when the antecedent's gender is uncertain (or in the case of some intersex/nonbinary people who don't like such pronouns).
Referring to other humans as "it" sounds awkward (and maybe not especially nice). The only time I've seen humans referred to as an "it" is in the case of babies, and I haven't even seen that in a long time.
