Not sure why you would be so hostile about it considering it is what he mentioned at the very beginning...it sounds like a pathetic attempt to justify this squalor
Simply put, Orion's base design was never meant to be his final one. The fact that he turned buff as time went on might be a callback to his mythological namesake or just a coincidence. But considering Cari loves his Greek references and with some of the characters having some elements borrowed from their namesakes...
(i.e. Penny being an Instagram model with a lot of simps -> Penelope from the "Odyssey" myth having a lot of suitors and men who fawn for her
Calypso being an elf with magical powers who was trapped in the server of Ogygia -> Calypso from the "Odyssey" myth being a witch who lives in the island of Ogygia
Thanatos being a top player of Eternum who also happens to be a dead man walking -> Thanatos from the Greek myths being death personified (or simply death)
Ulysses being a corporation that published a VRMMO that in actuality is a host that essentially facilitates "bizzare adventures" in various strange lands outside of ours -> Ulysses being a man from the Greek Myths who goes on his own "bizzare adventure" across strange lands and such)
...then I wouldn't be surprised if, again, Cari had been deliberate with the design choice due to the mythological angle/reference. And regardless if people like it or not, it's still his call if he wants said design to be used. /shrugs
