I get the feeling that the whole armor redesign argument may no longer be a concern. While they did "normalize" armor design for the original five races, that was in part due to the fact that they were under a horrendous development crunch. They were essentially rebuilding the game from scratch, and had to cut a few corners. Budget was likely tight, as well, as investors were justifiably skeptical given the horrendous bomb the original 1.0 was. Now, though, the game has had several years of rather impressive success. I could definitely see the devs having a lot more development wiggle room - such as the ability to redesign armor to fit an unusual frame for a new race, rather than modify the frame to fit the standard armor.
