I understand having this special drop be ultimately useless to you stinks but not everything will work for you, there's tons of rarely used pieces of glam items and gear that are also gender restricted.
"the actual raid jobs function similarly as a cool variants of the outfits based on 9S for guys" this seems fairly disingenuous. Like, say there simply wasn't a coffer at the end ... sure, all the female gear is based on 2B but people would still be asking for the direct 1:1 2B glam. And though I also assumed that we would get 9S glam for the next part there's no guarantee of that. This whole raid is unprecedented (never have we even had dye-able 24 men raid gear or even a special glam coffer for example)
This coffer drop might just be a 1 time deal to please everyone who wanted 2B glam by putting it in the raid people will have to run more than any other (to better the chances of everyone getting it) with the next raid being a mount in place of the coffer and the one after that being a 2B hair style. OR they could make other iconic females glams like A2.

Anyway, my point was that this is a fairly uneven issue.
Gendered versions of gear is there to appease as many as possible. So I see unrestricting them as something that could and should be worked on in the background as opposed to doing twice the work at the time of release OR having a 2B glam problem with events where a clearly female glam leaves a large portion of dude characters thinking they got nothing.
