Is BotW2 the right game to introduce a whole new race into Zelda?

In BotW we had the Gerudo, the Rito, the Zora, the Gorons, Sheikah and Hylians but nothing new...

BotW did have a lot to say about the Zonai though, the mysterious barbarian-like tribe who vanished mysteriously overnight.

Since we're returning to the same Hyrule of BotW1 for BotW2, do you think the inclusion of a new race would be too jarring or would you welcome a new race?

I'm personally hoping we get the Zonai fleshed out and that they're an army of ghosts living underground.

Gorons and Zoras and Dekus were races that originally were enemies, so a similar situation here would be cool and unexpected.

What if this time around, we meet friendly Bokoblins that hates their evil counterparts? And they're all cuddly and adorable? Not too sure I'm into it, but it would be unexpected as heck.

Another creature from another game I would've love to see as a fleshed-out race are the monkeys from MM.

Ooooooh the MM monkeys would be pretty cool to bring back.

When were Gorons ever an enemy?
