Burmecian Race

Also, they said "More then Likely, going to be our last races". So, just like Male Viera, and Female Hrothgar, they didnt outright say "No, its never going to happen"
So there is always a CHANCE, that things could change and they could do it & make it happen They Made Male Viera happen. so Never Say Never...until they outright say no

But the thing is, if they said they didn't think they could add any more because it would stretch resources too thin, and then re-evaluated and concluded that they could maybe afford this one more highly requested "extra race" after all... that doesn't sound like they're open to making another exemption for yet another race that is even more unusual and non-human-shaped than the current ones. It sounds like they've stretched to their limit.

Right, but they never stated it Would Never Happen.
So then unless they outright said otherwise, it COULD happen, especially if they manage to both upgrade and streamline processes in the development: hopefully without compromising quality and content.

True. But maybe the male viera are technically not a new race in terms of clothing. So there was no real effort to introduce them.

Making a seperate Sex/Gender is about the same amount of effort. Youre still building a new model, still creating unique features, animating it, and fitting gear to it.
If it were as easy as you made it sound, Male Viera would have happened alot sooner
