It counts for part of why they're not always noticable to other players!
My Duskwight is... well, fairly clear up close, but maybe not noticable at a glance (to other players in a dungeon or whatever). At the point when I was still "new to Eorzea" and trying to link up the clan descriptions with characters, plus misunderstanding some dialogue, I'd incorrectly thought Luciane from the archers' guild was a Duskwight - and I liked her colour scheme so I copied it when I was experimenting with character designs. She's actually a Wildwood, but you can still replicate that skin colour, or something like it, with the Duskwight options.
