    Everything they've added so far didn't break it for you, but a t-shirt would?

    Since the t-shirt was based on underwear from the 19th century, it kinda would. The circumstances for the popularity of the t-shirt don't exist in eorzea, while the circumstances for a lot of the other clothes (yes, including the chocobo and moogle suits and bikinis) currently exist. The camise and undershirt items currently occupy the role the t-shirt did around its popularization.
    If we DO get a t-shirt, it'll most likely have buttons on it. A "plain" t-shirt without buttons would be, well, plain. And very few garments in this game can be considered "plain" beyond color.

    Technically they're based off of ancient tech in combination with steampunk-esque tech. The allagans kinda had a tron aesthetic going for them that Garlond Ironworks copied. Magical runes can strongly resemble "tech" tron lines, after all.
