How often do you need to refer to an object with personal pronouns? I
think for me the answer is “never”. Why not name the specific role the
object is playing, rather than the indirectness of personal pronouns?

So, in short: you may not be the only one, but I find it difficult to
imagine why anyone would be motivated to do that.
