    We're approaching it from different views. I'm saying Hilda is "not special" because she is one of many NPCs who have been customised in a way that is beyond the reach of players because (as far as I can tell) it uses a different method. Instead of being a "built face" in the creator, it's a unique face for just that character. The method is not special just for her. Her face includes modified ears but that doesn't mean they can simply give players access to the same option in the "face builder".

    And it may well be a lore "design choice" that they don't want Hyur-Elezen mixed-race characters to be common. They haven't shown any other similar NPCs in all this time.


    Also I'm not sure what you mean by these being "not isolated things". They are the rare occasions we can point out that a character seems to be mixed-race, and it is generally achieved in ways that are not linked to creating additional features in the character creator, although sometimes using methods 'beyond it' and inaccessible to players.
