Further, I'd argue that it's precisely because Hempen is racially locked that it's so interesting. It's nice to have glamour options that aren't instantly off-putting because they're being worn by thousands of default catgirls in your server alone. The bikini tank you mention is a lore quirk but that's irrelevant, it's overused, boring and ultimately this has been avoided with Hempen simply by keeping it restricted to it's various races.
Actually I think you're missing the point, it's a piece of clothing, not some holy relic that only responds to those of true blood. >.>

Holding these hostage for Fantasias sales? Really? How does that work exactly? I mean for me, I like the look of a female Highlander, but I hate their Hempen set. I do however like the look of the female Midlander hempen set but I don't like the look of the Midlander females. Why on earth would I fantasia to a race choice I don't like? Here's a hint, I wouldn't!

Really all I read in your post is a personal distaste for all the catgirls running around being your main problem with the set losing the racial lock.
