SE doesn't put a priority on things like this. They did away with racial concerns for the ARR launch. If this was still 1.0's design philosophy, we'd all have fitting attire and hairstyle options. ...and probably 40 ring slots.
I’ve noticed that they just seemed to have given up with designing anything for anything beyond baseline hyur. Back in 1.0 through ARR, miqos had tops that had tail holes and if there was a pouch on the back, it would be turned into two pouches on either side of the tail hole. I noticed that started to go away in HW and now for the most part, the tail just clips through everything. It looks really bad on the new Ishgard Restoration glam where your tail goes right through a pouch. In addition, a lot of newer ShB gear doesn’t even have the famous miqo ear condoms on hats, hoods, and helmets.

The weird thing is though, that the new dragoon AF has an armored tail if you’re a tailed race. So it seems like their design philosophy is a little inconsistent. I’m a huge fan of Ivalice and was looking forward to viera, but it’s very apparent that they don’t have the resources assigned right now to make it work and now they’re cutting corners everywhere else and that’s a shame.

At this point I think I would have rather have had them concentrate on the existing races then add these two half-baked ones.
