This wouldn't be the first time DxD sets a precedent, would it? Proving an ecchi series can have an amazing plot, being one of the rare animes from any genre to get 3 seasons, what does it matter if YenPress doesn't have an ecchi LN licensed yet? They have DxD's manga and even Trinity Seven licensed.

Index. You can make the excuse that only OT was licensed, but Index is still being translated even though it was licensed. Other series are no longer being translated either because A. BT was their primary upload-site, or B. the translator quit after it was licensed. There was no situation where they were forced to stop, and I highly doubt Code-Zero would willingly abandon this project after more than 17 volumes.
