So I am not sure how many share your opinion that they screwed up by adding Au Ra...just my observation it seems like your opinion is minority.
They dropped the ball exceedingly hard in terms of delivery since they hyped up the race very very seriously with the no skin showing outfit for yugiri and the "I hide my features because the Eorzean people will get triggered worse than tumblr" making us think its some truly different and feature rich race.

And then we get the Au ra which turns out to be hyur with horns, tail, special eyes and scale patches that follows the tired old giant males and tiny cute females religiously.

My reasons for being extremely unhappy with au ra are very sound. Id really like a new race to not follow the Au ra's footsteps which is why Im furiously against viera.
