incorrect, "they" can be singular or plural.

Thus it's not a singular. It can be used as one, but it doesn't specify a singular, thus it isn't one. I can use a shovel as an axe, but it doesn't make it an axe, even though both are tools for splitting wood.

"You" isn't singular.

I'll demonstrate how sorely you are wrong in this matter. If you can translate the following sentence to English without it losing meaning or misgendering someone, I'll change my comment; "hänen autonsa." Take care to notice it is not synonymous with "heidän autonsa".

Go ahead. I'll wait.
