[S]uggestion: Additional NieR Ideas

The fact that the 9S set clearly exists in the game since he's in the game just makes it mindboggling to me that they didn't add his coffer to Puppet's Bunker.

Yeah it exists, as a female model since 9S uses female hyur body with modified animations. They'd actually need to adapt it to Hyur Male, Lalafell and Roes.. Nothing mind boggling about it other than why they didn't do it in the first place instead of doing it for 2B's outfit.

Also since Reincarnation is on topic here's a few that I liked:

To have 9S present, his outfit existing in-game, and bypassing it… I still believe they completely disregarded the fact that he's a main character. Automata isn't solely about 2B with 9S just floating around in the background. Both are indispensable if the story is to be told. It really wouldn't be all that troublesome to implement his outfit, and the demand is clearly still around. Here's to hoping they double back and add it.

I'd love to see those around. They effortlessly compliment the themes of numerous jobs. I like many of Noelle's looks as well: a tasteful fusion of mecha and streetwear.

Yeah it's kinda weird how they decided to waste time on doing 2B's outfit for males when nobody but crossdressing roes would wear it as a joke if at all, I wouldn't have high hopes of them doing 9S's outfit but if they did that'd be nice. A2 being forgotten entirely is also kinda predictable but she has no outfit to speak of anyway.

There's plenty of good reincarnation outfits tbh, even the NieR crossover had some great outfits, but I doubt we'd actually see them implemented. I mean aside from the various yorha unit remixes we've got as a raid set, they decided to give us extremely minor side character (Anemone has like one line) and literal background npc clothes for the last raid. I don't really see them revisiting Automata proper, if they did do 9S clothes they'd probably just add it to the loot list for the 1st raid. Maybe in some years we could have a Replicant crossover instead though, I find that more likely. If it was a Reincarnation one I think it'd be pretty minor, but who knows. They could always just do the Cryptlurker thing and do something that is heavily inspired by something.

You've summed it up. Instead of a proper 9S set, they thought that was sufficient. Why go through the hassle of scaling 2B's set for males when they could've presented the already in-game 9S set? As I've mentioned before, SEGA who doesn't even own rights to Automata, released sets for 9S (including a female variant), 2B, A2, weapons, and even an Emil head. As for A2, I figured SE left her out because while present in other collabs (SINoALICE, Re[in]carnation, etc.), she's often nowhere to be found where story is concerned. That, or they didn't want any perceived obligation to release her set or hairstyle.

There's always the Saucer and PvP; both are great outlets for post-raid/event releases. With Automata receiving an anime adaptation, they could also tie some items in with a questline and FATE.
