In the play tests for Artificers Artificers from Lantan are mentioned, so do you think the Artificer could be in BG 3? If not right away what about in an Expansion?
And what About Shifters, Changeling, Kalashatar, Warforged? I know that Shifters were introduced to FR in 4e's Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide, and there is a Changeling prototype Template in FR in 3.5e. Kalashtar in the Forgotten Realms had a Dragon Articial (basically two people merged by the Spellplague).

Why should any of these races except the shifters even be at the sword coast? Why do you want Eberon stuff in the forgotten Realms?

Because eberron is strictly a better setting than forgotten realms.
or dark sun, or nentir vale, or planescape, or spelljammer, or greyhawk.... yeah ok im going off on a tangent here.

Anyway, i dont expect eberron stuff in BG3, i expect everything from the Players Manual and mabye some choice other things, Eberron stuff does exist in FR, for the most part, mostly due to 5E pushing FR even more into kitchen sink territory than it already was, but usually nowhere near the swordcoast and not very prominently

Kalashtar and Changelings (sort of) are already in the Forgotten Realms. It's the same with the Centaurs, Minotaurs, Loxo, from Guildmasters Guide to Ravnica, FR has those races so why both have them in the game.

FR is the greatest D&D setting. And sticking stuff from other setting into FR started long before 5e. 3e adding Tieflings, Aasimar, Goliath, Raptorans, and Genasi from Planescape, 4e added Dragonborn, Infernal Style Tieflings, Dave's, 4e style Shadar Kai.

And hate the term kitchen sink setting, I prefer Immigration Evovling Setting. There are really good reasons why the Forgotten Realms are the most popular beloved and successful setting in D&D.
