Honestly didn´t read all your post, but I´ll say the same as always.
You have your preferences, like any gamer in this forum, I get that, but I really don't think Larian should make a game that caters to what is clearly a very very specific set of demands. I would rather they focus on making a game that is as finely tuned as possible for the great majority of playthroughs as opposed to making a set of options that try to draw in a particular group fans with extremely particular tastes.
Most of the changes in the 5th edition of D&D were to make it more inclusive and newbie-friendly, less elitist. I hope this game will follow that spirit and made a game that many people will enjoy, not only a particular group with particular preferences.
