You're pretty knowledgeable, so I can see why they would think that!
 
Is it just R1 that they used the bigger pushbutton ranks or did they do it in Solo too?  Technically, even the OT rank bars wouldn't be correct replicating a R1 officer since their rank tiles were sized differently.  Maybe that's that nuance stuff you talked about ignoring?  

Wow. It's honestly great to see how much thought, time and effort goes into discussing and deciding crl's.
 
As a fairly new costumer who generally makes their own stuff, a clear crl is a godsend. Personally, I find the ones with a ton of variants terrifying - especially things like seam placements etc. What if the seams I choose don't go with the weapon  variation I choose? (Costume ocd is an affliction )
 
I think as a face character Hask has earned a crl. He's named because he's a main feature - not so it's easier to credit than 'officer Vader choked' (BTW,  love that line ). To costume as Hask, you are representing a specific character - not just an officer. Same as Tarkin, Thrawn and all the others mentioned previously. As a costumer looking to do a specific character, rather than generic, it's a lot easier to have a specific crl to work from.
This my personal opinion though.
 
Hask has differences in his uniform. The seams are different, the code cylinders etc. This is not a variant to the generic crl, this would make it a different uniform. This is a lot different to 'generic uniform officer, choose your rank' variations. 
 
I also think by having a specific crl it will pave the way for others in the future to create a realistic Hask thereby helping to enrich and grow the wealth of characters across the world that the legion troop.

Just a quick reminder to a statement made above, I will say again, a person who makes a new to the legion costume does not have to consult anyone except the DL and the LMO they don't even have to let anyone else other than the 2 mentioned even know they are building said costume, I have in fact shared my intentions and progress with everyone, so if that is not letting people have a voice whether I agree with the view or not then I don't know what is.

There's two line officer CRLs. Generic, and Tarkin.
 
It's simple, Hask is a hero character.
Hux is a hero character
Thrawn is a hero character
Tarkin is a hero character
 
None of them are just a regular officer, and each one requires specific facial make up to get them approved. Thrawn's uniform is exactly the same as the legends GA, Hux is exactly the same as the FO General, Tarkin has an undershirt. You want Hask to be a generic, then make them generics first, but there will be backlash from the 501st, and those who went after those face characters, those hero characters.
 
Hask, is different from the in game model for play, that has been proven.

So at the beginning of this discussion we had five points in which the generic model differs that was the reason to split the CRL in a Generic and a Hask version:
Colour  Rank bars  Belt/Shoes  Design  Code Cylinder  The belt/shoes were dropped later and the color was at least questioned,
 
So at the end of the day there are three points left that define that Hask has to be an separate CRL. Rank Bars, Design and Code Cylinder. I'd say congratulations, these are the same arguments that were used to justify e.g. why there's only one CRL for the line officers. 
 
I can only agree with @Tentayena on this one. Nobody denies that Hask shouldn't be a wearable variant as the character has a stressed role for the plot. But the intended decision to split the CRLs mismatches the procdures of the past.
 

Hask should have his own Crl and I don’t see why not.

their not though, the face character requirements alone should be enough yo need differentiation. he is a main bad guy after all.
