Whenever the topic of new races comes up, I always see someone post the suggestion of introducing Padjal as a playable race.

I've read on the Final Fantasy Wiki and have told people that Padjal as a playable race can't happen because there's not enough of them in existence to justify them being a playable race.

However, the FF wiki doesn't cite a source for their claim. Is there a dev post about this that I haven't found yet or quest text somewhere in the game that I missed that talks about this?
