Male viera have next to no lore in any of the Ivalice games. There is no lore to break in regards to them other than “they are reclusive and skilled warriors”. Still, given that they worked with Matsuno for the Ivalice raids, it stands to reason that they would consult him in their creation of male viera as well. I can’t see why they wouldn’t, and Matsuno was quick to shut down the rumor that he didn’t want them in the game when asked about it on Twitter.
