It's not just adding races though, it's adding the ongoing workload of modifying equipment to fit those races. Even if we got additional races it's unlikely they'd have unique body shapes as the Burmecians would need.

It's also at least part of why they "squeezed in" both Viera and Hrothgar instead of just going with one or the other. We were always going to get only one male and one female character model added - making them different races just makes it seem like we're missing out on something.
