You can't "lock" something that doesn't exist.

[JohnSpawnVFX]

It's almost as if genderlock means a playable race that only has one accessible sex/gender as an option and has nothing to do with whether assets for said missing gender do or do not exist yet.

Almost as if a race is LOCKED to one gender option.

Here we go again...

It's almost as if the term doesn't imply that there something locked away, like say a class that is only available to one gender. Which is what actually genderlock means.

If the assets don't exist, there isn't any lock. There needs to be an open state first available, for a lock claim to be made.

But keep up the mental gymnastics to twist "something we really want" into "something that should've existed already". It's very entertaining.
