Regardless if race ASIs are good or bad or neutral for roleplaying, it is a common house rule to allow replacement ASIs. Tasha's just made this explicitly allowed by the rules (assuming of course your DM allows Tasha's)
That's always been my experience. I've never been in a 5e game where at least one person hasn't asked the DM if they could modify something about their racial attributes. I've even seen someone ask if they could have a character with a speed of 5 feet (they had no legs, but were using a homebrew class' construct to move around with).
