Tasha's rules are amazing and improve player options massively. They mean you can play a race for its roleplay potential and special abilities instead of pidgeonholed into 'every human is multiclass' and 'half elves are the master race'.
It's good for power gaming, not role-playing.
That's how I've always seen the Tasha's ASI option. It's literally nothing but 'I didnt play this race before because I couldnt min/max my ASI, now I can.'
