It is your responsibility as a customer to keep the producer of a product in check, and not argue against people who feel as if they were given an inferior product. This situation could have been avoided early on if the playerbase had made it clear that limited races with hardly any hair or hat options wasn't acceptable, and this is the result of what happens when things like that are let to slide.
    A large part of it was that they had been running on player faith since ARR, so when they were told "we got you, don't worry" in regards to the hair and headwear additions both coming at a later time, people believed them. And I don't think it was unreasonable to expect them (at that point in time) to follow through on their promises. But they did not. So, here we are. What happens when that faith has been shattered? Customers get angry. And they should be!

    In my case, I remember seeing bad signs that wore on my faith ever since the abysmal implementation of Eureka, that and the huge controversy at the time that Blue Mage launched as a limited job and the playerbase allowed for that word to enter and even be used in their vocabulary, when it never should have been. I remember that they somehow thought that releasing Baldesion Arsenal with its convoluted method of entry was also ok at the time-thank goodness Bozja, while imperfect, is nowhere near as bad as that was.

    No amount of promises could hold up to the stacking evidence that I saw mounting up at the time, in any case it seems I was correct to be suspicious of the situation. There is no excuse for Hrothgar to be in the state that they are in now, and while Viera have had great strides they are still missing various hair options, saying nothing of how little hats work on them.

    And supposedly the excuse for all this is clipping. Enough already, we do not care about clipping. We never did.

    While I questioned those things, and made my dissatisfaction known, perhaps I didn't realize where things were headed.
