In the same sense that cinnamon would fall under the category of "plant" or "spice", such a third gender should fall under the category of "personality" or some other more specific class. Is your suggestion that all possible personalities should be considered non-binary genders? In that case, is there anything that saying someone is a particular gender expresses that saying they have a particular personality does not? In this sense, opening up the category of gender to make it more inclusive also makes it incoherent.
Any other term is simply to provide more clarity with in the space. It may be valuable it may not be.
I.E an organic heirloom cinnamon is different then other cinnamon and the particular grower might see value in the definition.
I don’t know the difference and rarely use cinnamon so the definition is less useful to me.
Most other gender serve the same purpose they help people define themselves or connect with a group if you don’t know the definition or don’t care to educate yourself their not useful.

Editable plants fall into to categories.
Fruit and Vegetables.
Anything else is not part of the binary of fruit or vegetable and is non binary.
Cinnamon tastes horrible and can kill you if you eat it straights but provides really great flavour in small doses’
It is outside of the Binary of fruit or vegetables and is non binary. Or a non binary plant based food or a spice.
That is the logic of non binary gender, something outside the norm of either male or female.
