Poor fitting gear on many races

[Enlial]

while others float unnaturally far off the face (example comparison here)

unnatural? you realize miqote dont even have ears there? What on earth are those glasses supposed to be hanging off of? Do we like, tie knots around the hinges with our hair to hold them up? On that note, imagining a miqote with the sides of their head exposed is some serious uncanny valley stuff.

Short characters are an issue as well. My char is close to the minimum height and theres a lot of clipping around the hips.

And skirts in general look ridiculous, the way they jet out all rigid at a set angle. (skirts as in like, the eastern lady's dress)

I really hope at some point the character models get an update to their skeletons or whatever to better support the various styles of gear available

Sidenote: as much complaining as people do, myself included, the aesthetics in this game are beautiful and the design team should be proud of the work they do. I dont doubt for a second that the people designing the gear hate the compromises they have to make even more than we do.
