We do know that we only have four face options because of "memory limitations" (read: PS3 limitations).
Occam's Razor applies here. Female miqo'te are built around the "catgirl" fantasy. There is a general perception among narrow-minded individuals that "older" faces are "ugly". An old miqo'te face would sully their precious catgirl fantasy, and we all know that it's a cardinal sin to make an ugly woman in fantasy fiction (especially video games). Therefore, our four options are restricted to only degrees of young beautiful.
