Y can't we color helmets separately from bodies yet?

[General_Durandal]

DE made it so we can color our Syandana separately from our armor.
I thought when they did that, shortly after they'd also separate helmet's color from the body's color.

It's the same argument.
Just like how many syandanas color boxes don't match armor color boxes,
some helmet color boxes don't match body color boxes.

Two combos I want to use,

Box 2: Black

EDIT - the entire reason why i'm not buying anymore Tenno-Gen items,
is because the helmets I bought already don't color well with the body I want to use with it.
I tried to get a refund, but the support desk said no refunds.

Syandanas aren’t the Warframe, they were also made because finding a balance between them and armor pieces looking good when using the exact same channels suck. Helmets don’t have that problem.

Someone recently on Twitter asked Pablo the same question, here’s his response which sheds some light as to why it’s not in the game as of right now.

More things requiring separate values all adding data that needs to be shuttled to and fro, increasing the load on the servers, the Hosts, the Clients. If there were some huge, obvious gain in people buying more alt helmets, Tennogen or otherwise, then I'd imagine DE would jump at the chance. If there isn't, if it's just something people would find "nice" and not ultimately drive more sales... there's nothing for DE to gain there.

For me, I would just be annoyed at another menu to color my helmets.

The entire reason I refuse to buy alt helmets is because their color doesn't match any skins.
