My belief is that this is a mix of lore and gameplay mechanics. To me, tenno are humans with void influence. males and females. I don't think they can shape shift and people on female warframes are female and those on male frames are male. Now, the game mechanic kicks in and sadly deals a hard blow to lore. In order to not limit players to chose a gender and be limited to a single gender frame, we get the system of building frames and wearing whatever frame we want, just so we can play with it and just so there's no extra work in making the two genders of all frames.

I think there's more people who play this game simply to shoot stuff than to read lore, so if that's what DE also thought, then their priority should be game mechanics despite all the plot holes.

Again, this is all my opinion and not  a fact.
