    It is something that is unoptimized that can be optimized at the cost of looking how you don't want to look and it just bugs me greatly. Which is why I suggested stats should be tied to something that doesn't effect looks and guardian is the perfect thing because nobody sees it and its only on your profile in your character screen.

You talk about being "at a disadvantage", but if a Dunesfolk Lalafell tank can do just as well as a Sea Wolf Roegadyn tank in practice and ease of content (and they can), then it clearly doesn't matter all that much.
    I don't really get how you can say its inconsequential because if you ask any dps they would love to have 6 more of their primary stat for free. Even if its something that equates to like a .5 or a 1% increase in efficiency that is still a increase. I find it extremely frustrating I can never hit the dps ceiling because another race has a 6 stat advantage over me unless I switch to the optimal race.
