Are there any plans to change this at some point and infact does anyone that still plays a mi'quote that played a mithra in XI see this as a bad thing?
I really like how they are now. I was playing as a Mithra in FFXI and in FFXIV there are many "cute" emotes for the Miqo'te that are similar to anime cat girls. And, unlike FFXI, the races are mixed together in cities and throughout the world, so it is more natural to see that everyone has influenced everyone. Thus having Miqo'te more human than acting like bipedal cats, which makes sense.
