And to take this further - in the original they didn’t look like “people” because they couldn’t emote, or connect with the other ancestries as easily, it was easier for other characters/NPCs to rationalize treating them poorly which is a MAJOR plot point in the setting.

EXACTLY this. They’re the iconic character of the setting - why take that away? Why should they look like metallic people?

I mean god … this “upgrade” is such a downgrade!
