Gendered articles probably not but having “a” vs “the” removes the need for additional cases (eg. I/me/my). Latin and Russian don’t have articles but they have more cases which have different suffixes that have to be applied to all nouns. Usually simplifying one part of language makes another part more complex. English has a very simple case structure but the word order is much more strict
Are articels useful at all?
What’s the advantage of having a female /male table?
they can create tablets
I’m still smiling at this.

I remember a study that gendered articles slightly increase understandibility among native speakers.
