I must be a DND 5e Rules purest, I think the way they have 5e set is based on Game balance that's been tested in actual game play, Granted that's pen and paper and an argument could be had to the actual translation to a computer game but I will freely admit I am biased on this post as I have some of my favorite characters I would love to build in Baldurs Gate.
FYI I pushed the Spider Queen off a web last night with my Warlock. My statement still stands, its over powered and Baldurs 3 game balance and character fine tuning will benefit from following the rule set long term on this one. Change it now before you start introducing the Paladin class. You can thank me later.
