One way of taking it is that the devs are less interested in rather esoteric political arguments on the matter (particularly this nonsense with the "right side of history" vibe to it) and more interested to simply gauge demand for the race. I for one agree with him that the political arguments should stay out of the equation.

They are likely to be much more interested in metrics like whether this would affect a purchase than being preached at.

Mine is feedback too.
Stick to your decision, maybe fix the Male Hrothgar with an actual unique model.
I mean, the lore doesn't prohibit them, anymore than mooncat lore prohibits male mooncats or the WoL as a WHM. It's a nonstarter. Regarding your comment about Zenos, I'm not sure how female Viera don't pose the same issue. It's a weak line of reasoning, and the devs don't seem to be dogmatically basing this on the lore... which doesn't even make the argument you think it does.
