Not sure I agree as it seems like black and white thinking.
I.e. I could imagine a scenario where someone is very obviously/admits to using neopronouns disingenuously and that would break my social contract with them to honour it.
If I make an assessment of neopronoun usage on a case by case basis I can still avoid witch hunts. It’s similar to how I determine in real life if someone is an asshole or not.
Another way; I can support a person who I genuinely believe uses neopronouns while denouncing and excluding someone who doesn’t.
It is a very tricky slope. It’s best to never compromise on neopronoun usage even with suspected trolls, they can be discredited without erasing the pronouns.
Again, invalidating neopronouns is a cascading issue that results in witch-hunting and should be avoided.
