I don't get why people would be against this. Since when has has more customization options ever been a bad thing? Maybe I'm wrong but I just take "I'm against this" as "I need to feel special for playing this race cause that's the only reason why i do."

My take is: It's pretty annoying to like the hempen clothing of one race but not like playing that race. It's especially annoying if you like making casual looking outfits because some races can do it way easier with their hempen parts. Fem Miqos for example have great hempen tops for casual outfits but I don't like playing them, fem Miqos race gear also has one of the best skirts in the game and I feel like it should be available to all the races.
