because there will be more types. and they can work on them as individual outfits rathet than having to try and make it wearable with other items of clothing. i mean take for example, the iron armour shown in e3. because of the nature of the lower half, which an almost tunic-like feel to it, splitting the armour parts would be difficult to do while still making each half look good on its own. instead of spending time sorting that out bethesda can focus on making better looking and more varied armour types.
