I wonder if they already had the art done before they decided to condense the originally-planned Garlean expansion together with another to make Endwalker, then didn't have time and/or budget to commission new art (or were trying not to spoil the "twist" of Meteion) and they just had to roll with it as best they could. Would fit with my general impression of Endwalker being kinda rushed.
