You could take this further and give each of the none-Hyurian race two unique faces for that tribe.
For example:,
Keepers of the Moon and Seekers of the Sun Miqo'te would have the four shared faces they have now BUT they would both also have two faces that are unique to their race tribe.

This would help differantiate the none-Hyurian tribes more.
As it stands now only Midlanders and Highlanders are completely different from one another, while the rest of the races' tribes are extremely similair with only a few differences.
This would help with immersion and

My problem with this though is that existing races already are limited to 1 particular thing from the other in terms of physical characteristic. Lizards on the color of their scales and cats on who has fangs and who has cat eyes and iirc, Roes are limited to just different skin color gamuts.

Barring this. I'd prefer the races to have more racial features in general that really help flesh out each race's background, albeit these being inclusive and not limiting in the case of how highlander males can't have eyebrows due to "lore reasons". Let me make and break the mold, not fit to it.
