They are truly unique to the world. A very special exemption that Hydaelyn herself created to be her champion. The Warrior of Light is by far the rarest and most unique exception within the games lore and as such it is very plausible for Hydaelyn to have chosen a male Viera to receive her blessing that leads him to where he would be in the story when said gender becomes available.

To claim "lore reasons" for the reason to be against the inclusion of missing genders is simply a fallacy. A one that lacks any kind of legitimate logic or reasoning. "Lore" is not quantifiable. "Lore" is meaningless. An argument for or against the inclusion of a particular element in a game has to be something that can be reasoned out via quantifiable measures in order for it to actually have any weight behind it. For example a valid reason why the missing genders may never be included is because the devs don't think it's something worth investing time and resources into. Time and resources being the quantifiable components here.
if you want some meaningless lore, look no further than astrologian! almost all of it's class quest lore is a straight up lie at this point (the incredibly in-depth descriptions and reasonings for the cards and their effects, their intermingling with time-related spells, choosing between the different sects, etc etc). it makes me indescribably sad to see the class be thrice-lobotomized at this point, but it's a great example.
