You don't know how that actually works, do you? Also it's client-side only, meaning that only you would be seeing the changes and you'd have to basically grab a GM's ear and scream at them about what you're doing... and even then they probably have bigger fish to fry.

I don't think it has anything to do with prudishness or bias on part of the devs. #1 reason is probably the one they've stated- not having to account for a range of butt and bulge contours when making gear probably does cut down on a significant amount of work they'd have to do. Unfortunately it leaves the players wanting too.
