I'm way staying out of where this thread is going (I think we should have a discussion on other elements of miqo'te biology and how/if they factor into consent, but that's not this thread), but I've got one little lore nitpick:
I'd say it's more accurate to say they "had" such a language. Dev posts on naming conventions strongly imply (or, in the case of Roegadyn, outright state) that any racial languages are long dead and really only live on in names. That doesn't mean you can't say your character comes from a really obscure, out of the way tribal branch that still uses them, but I don't feel the lore supports miqo'te actively speaking a racial language in the modern era.
