The fact is, very few of your average fat american gamers actually know what each peice of armor is called, thus- it would be tedious and pointless to put that much detail into it.

 

Also, morrowind isnt supposed to mimic real life, suppose in the world of tamriel they do use greaves for the upper legs.

Yes, i realized that as well, about the greaves, perhaps my long nights of playing Diablo 2 has made me more aware of armor types and names... But its also Morrowind, it doesnt even exist on earth, they have words that are not used in our english language, such as Dunmar....so, if they called a house a Rabbit, wouldnt you say something about that?

Well, I learned something new from this tread.
