I understand where you&#x27;re coming from, but your solution wouldn&#x27;t actually be logical and consistent either. &quot;Fahrschein&quot; comes from the root &quot;Schein&quot; (engl. &quot;slip (of paper)&quot;), which is masculine (&quot;der Schein&quot;); &quot;Fahrkarte&quot; comes from &quot;Karte&quot; (engl. &quot;card&quot;&#x2F;&quot;map&quot;), which is feminine (&quot;die Karte&quot;), and &quot;Ticket&quot; is, afaik, an anglicism (which are often designated as neuter)...<p>So in order to achieve consistency across these three words, one would have to break consistency with their roots - a bit of a catch 22...
