I think there should be an improvement in being able to choose your starting gear just like we are able to when creating a character in tabletop.

In D&D every class has their starting proficiencies, which means a few array of possible weapons and armor you could choose to start with. I'd love to be able to choose my starting weapon whether should it be a Longsword for my Fighter or a Greataxe, maybe a Mace for my Cleric or a Warhammer. Also I'd be able to choose a Leather Armor or Scale Mail as stated in the character creation in 5E.

There are multiple possibilities in character creation, even maybe choosing gold over equipment and buying your own later on. Being pre defined on my starting gear makes it feel really restricting on the possibilities.

well, starting PHB gear is pretty much an equipment cap (ie cant find anything better) until lvl 5 at least. This spoils early game of gear progression. Im fine with it but not as far as the PHB allows
