>but I'm more asking why they never developed GINN IIs to continue the lineage
After the war began, ZAFT integrated all their Design Bureaus into a single concern. Since the Le Creuset team successfully stole the GAT-X series, ZAFT ordered a mass-production model directly from their newly acquired technology.
In this regard, the GINN was a technological dead end. Yes, they're decent units in the hands of skilled pilots after being overhauled, but you wouldn't want to field your forces with them if you can field better units. An F-16 is still an airframe from the 1970s and inferior to the F-35, regardless of how many upgrades you slap on it.
>Is it just Gundam exceptionalism for the Cosmic Era?
Bingo.
