I think the issue here is that taking "leading but ambiguous" responses from the dev team as "confirmation" is exactly what happened with male Viera. They gave vague answers to questions that players thought must mean it was coming and they were just being deliberately fake-secretive about it... and look how that turned out.

Yes it looks like it could be a housing ward.

Yes they've given answers that imply it may be coming.

But don't assume it IS coming until they outright say it is, or you still may be setting yourself up for disappointment.
