Terran Empire uniforms, a complete rip off due to bad tailor system

I was actually looking forward to these uniforms. I still can't get the Jupiter variants, since I don't have nearly enough money around to buy that many master keys (5 or so Lobi per box is insane, that's 40 boxes for one damn uniform), but I traded enough dilithium to combine with my last couple months of free ZEN to buy keys in order to get the Odyssey variants. Man, was that a mistake. These things are so misleading.
On the preview of the uniforms, you can see the sleeveless uniforms, the armband, the new Terran Empire knife insignia on the other arm, and unique ranks on the shoulders. What you actually get is the sleeveless uniforms (good, but I'd rather use the full uniforms anyway), the same armband for each arm, two slightly different chest straps with pouches, and two belts (Odyssey and one that matches the chest piece). The insignia and ranks (of any kind) are nowhere to be found. Not to mention the fact that, once again, the arm and chest pieces are color-matched, so you can't change one without changing the other. If you try to make the armband shown on the preview (which you can't exactly, since it's the off-duty color palette instead of the Fed uniform one), you end up with a really weirdly colored chest piece. That, or you choose to get rid of one. So, here's what I would really like to happen:
1. STOP COLOR MATCHING UNIFORM PIECES! I'm sick and tired of not being able to color two pieces differently just because they're in arbitrary slots that are matched. Is there anyone who really wants that? Anyone? If you want the same colors, all you have to do is change each piece individually. It even gives you a list of previously used colors, so it takes five seconds.
2. MAKE UP YOUR MIND! Having different color palettes on the same uniform is so annoying! My uniform may be the standard Starfleet black and red, but my chest piece has to be one of the much brighter colors of the off-duty palette, and my belt is a weird dark and glossy purple, green, or jet black of the Romulan palette. Who the hell keeps using different colors for the same uniform, and why?!
3. Please don't have misleading previews on the uniform boxes. If you put a part of this uniform on the box, I expect that part to be in said box. If I bought the Jupiter box and found those missing parts in it, I'd be so pissed. You could have given us all of the Terran uniforms in one box, to make the thing worth the money for a change, but you decided to lie to us and make it so you have to buy both boxes to get any of the full uniforms.

I didn't even know there were KDF and Romulan versions. That's even more reason to fix the tailor.
Both are plauged by the same clipping issues as the fed ones too.
I really wish I had the rest of the uniform to. These reasons are why i didn't buy the fed ones.
