Wanting to control your appearance so that your character is not an eyesore to you and others around you is not a valid reason? Individualized looks on the field instead of being part of an army of characters that looks exactly the same is not a valid reason? Roundabouts to imminent fugly gear is not a valid reason? There's plenty in terms of justification for gving players control over their characters' appearance. It gives people something else to strive for, helps keep content relevant and adds a dimension of enjoyment to playing.
