Gender nouns

Is there a point in nouns having a gender? I was always told it removes confusion, ironically the opposite is true for me anyway.

Just repeat? It's easy with short words, but... think in this example:
"I took an Low Orbit Ion Cannon and an Auto-Refresh HTML Page. They were both to attack AnT. Them I hit AnT with it."

Just repeat. You will NOT do this because both names are long. So, you use a pronoun instead.

Using noun classes would change dramatically English structure, but proximative pronouns would just add two or three words. I suggest:
it - last name (in this case, AnT)
ille /ajl/ - second-to-last.
illo /ajlow/ - third to last.

Now, look:
"I took an Low Orbit Ion Cannon and an Auto-Refresh HTML Page. They were both to attack AnT. Them I hit AnT with ille."
Because "ille" refers to second-to-last term, which is Auto-Refresh HTML Page, the ambiguity goes out :D
