They remind me of one race- Humans. Us right now. Aggressive governments pushing their borders forward with a high body count. Not willing to budge. That's the thing with Trek- everything is open to personal interpretation and civilised discussion.

All they had to do was tell the story they wanted to tell with a new species.
Yep they could but there will be another subset of fans complaining that they have introduced a new major race that wasn't seen in TOS. A no-win scenario....
If it doesn’t conflict with TOS most would be fine with it I think. More so than unnecessarily rewriting the Gorn for example.
I have never seen any fan complain that they introduced something new! Lots of complaints about retreading familiar ground. I think we all want strange NEW worlds!
