Do you really think most D&D fans will buy this game even if it's 100% RAW D&D? I sincerely doubt. As for those who buy it, I doubt most would care about the modified rules if the game is good. Of course, there will be those who will not buy for this reason, but it will be a definite minority. In addition, the computer game is governed by different rules than PnP. A large part of the players will be people who do not have contact with D&D on a daily basis, or those who do not play regularly.
Yes, I think that following 5e more closely will bring in more D&D players. Speaking for myself, being able to see your tabletop character in action is a huge selling point.

The whole point of comparing BG3 to Solasta is that Solasta is implementing 5e rules almost literally, and it works effectively. Solasta addresses most common complaints regarding BG3's combat, which are related to things that players should be able to do according to 5e rules but can't.
