Correct.
Dragon says they're using 'drag' as a pronoun, but they actually are not.
They are using it as a nickname whereby they constantly refer to themself in the third person.
They don't believe this is what they are doing, but it is what they are doing.
Its not actually a coherent neopronoun structure that works within the grammatical rules of English.
Further, I should add that Dragon states that their preffered 'drag' pronoun also operates in second person, on their profile.
Meaning that if you were talking directly to Dragon and said:
...they would presumably view the use of 'You' as not respecting their preferred pronouns, which should instead be 'Drag'.
