I'm not talking about the Miqo thing, though - I'm addressing you saying that this game's lore would somehow need to be "twisted" to support a primarily female Viera race. The lore in this game is clear as day in that there will not be male Viera. That same series of quotes cautions people from even looking for them because they'll only find disappointment or death.

You're fine to invoke the whole Miqo lore thing as a way to dismiss arguments centering on lore but you aren't being intellectually honest if you're presenting the idea that the lore of XIV is in any way supportive of your request... really it's quite the opposite.

Twisting lore is what we would need to do to include male Viera, nothing needs to change in their lore to keep them a mystery. I'm down for twisting lore in your favor as well but we should be honest about what that means.
