Stop asking for new races

I really don't know why Yoshida left the door open for new races – basically encouraged people to come and beat the door down – when he previously explained at length that additional races were an unreasonable drain on their schedule.

Maybe their model updates and standardisation have made it easier to adapt things in future, but it just seems a strange change of heart after all this drama.

That could be part of it. If the player character sprite system is rebuilt so that they only need to make 1 file for a piece of gear instead of 16 after the addition of femhroth, they'd have effectively cut a substantial amount of race related work out of the production process for both the initial addition of a new race and also for future content updates as new gear is added.
