I'm not seeing what this had to do with what I said about female Roe and male Miqote setting the "gender counterpart" standard.

SE has seen twice now that when they gender-lock a race, players eventually demand gender counterparts to be unlocked. This happened in FFXI, then in 1.0 (which they corrected in 2.0), and then again in 5.0 (which they've now half-corrected). They have no excuse to keep making the same mistake.

If they don't want to keep making more work for themselves, they should do it right the first time.
