don't know if anyone else that read ascension picked up on this: one of the quarians that was running along rooftops on omega was able to easily jump 15 - 20ft from rooftop to rooftop with a loaded pack and shotgun. So I think the world record long jump is around 25 feet and pretty sure it's done without a pack, shotgun, or environmental suit. So either the suit is powered to enable quarian to run/jump faster, or they maybe something to this quarian pounce thing.
I haven't read the novel, but I always thought that with their pseudo-digitigrade lower legs that they might have been sprint or ambush hunters rather than endurance hunters like humans.
Maybe nocturnal, if their eyes really are reflective?
If quarians are sprint or ambush hunters they probably wouldn't sweat. I think sweating was one of the advantages that humans had developed to be able to do our impressive endurance running in order to hunt.
Deeper and deeper into speculation, of course. But it's an interesting discussion.
On the subject of Rannoch being more arid: that would also support a more prominent nose to better moisturize inhaled air.
