The reason is quite obvious. Yoshi even outright stated that they designed the Au Ra (at least the females, I guess) based on how much people loved female miqo'te. Restating it a million times isn't going to change my opinion on the matter though. I still disagree with it. I still think there was a better way to go about it (split the design so that one clan appeals to one sense, the other appeals to another sense).
People are just trying to share their view/opinion back with you, man. :/ You enter discussions here, so people want to discuss with you! I don't think anyone expects you to change your opinion or anything; if anything I think they might just want to understand better. I know you've been on site for a while and have plainly stated your stance often, but there are a lot of new people who haven't seen your older posts and so will want to engage you to see where you're at and why.
That said, I don't follow a lot of the dev stuff, I only pick up stuff here, so things being "obvious" or Yoshi "outright" stating things goes wayyyy over my head -- which is why I, at the very least, ask why people think things were done a certain way. I just didn't know! I like getting others' take on something!
I do agree that splitting design, even if it was just for one or two faces or . . . somethign that wouldn't require as much work, would have been very appreciated. Still though, Idunno, it's hard for me to really criticize or justify anything without knowing the full story -- which you're only gonna get by being there behind scenes. So I'll just keep hoping that next time maybe they'll go for something a little more off the beaten path.
