To break up the monotony in the designs, and to also allow for a transforming shell into the shuttle.

Really even Faiz leans more on the belt henshin device for the shoulders because he doesn't have an actual 'collectible'. Plus for Faiz it's an extra nod to another show as well as a nod to the over arcing theme of Cellphone culture that it presented in its story(like the cellphone girl friend swan, and other stuff). So Fourze opted to start off showing how some ride armors can have some wider design variety too.

Same with OOOs in how we see it change up the ride armor design some with using the cheetah shoulders. The OOO's ride armor favors using the full animal in the totem pole/stacked design like three animals standing on top of each other instead of having giant coin(The OOO's collectible) shoulders. So it focuses more on the theme of "animals" instead of the coin collecting theme. Like how Fourze focuses more the theme of Space Travel instead of the switches from the belt device and how his suit is a space shuttle.

The armors are designed a little more parody like to their respective shows. It's a way to allow for poking fun at them a little bit, but to also poke fun at Zi-O itself and Sougo's personality. The entire show is an excuse for Toei and its Rider creative crew to make fun of itself. Especially about the influences of 20 years of shows. This is also why Agito is a little more complicated than people realize and not because of the "Another Agito" which is really a hype distraction from the actual complicated bits. Agito's source material and influences is a little more rooted in complicated. Zi-O is fourth wall breaking, so it draws heavily off of behind the scenes stuff that's attached to each show.

Again, you have no proof for *any* of this, so please stop trying to present yourself as an expert and/or have connections to the writers.
