Personally I still think it's a weird choice. In Fallout or Elder Scrolls, anytime I want to look at my character I can just switch over to 3rd-person to get a good look at them in-game. I can see how their armor/outfit looks when they move around, and I can see how they use their weapon(s).
In Cyberpunk, I have to pause the game. And V just stands there, holding a weapon. You don't really get to see clothes in action, even in photo mode (which is nice to have, but still).
