I would love them to add this stuff, mostly for the subclasses and the cantrips. For the people that don't like the changes in Tasha's, just consider that they may bring more people into the game that might not otherwise play because what they liked was unoptimised. If you don't like the new rules then don't use them at your table.

However, I'm in a campaign with a DM who likes to use a fumble chart, chooses abilities checks our characters are not proficient in (even when it doesn't make sense), and likes to set up combat with 10+ enemies on the regular. If they're not min/maxed they just die. I'm going to want a min/maxed character in this situation.
Overall, this is why folks like rolling for stats, you can get the stats you need to pair more races and classes. I've never been fond of how limiting point-buy can be.
This is well said, however I disagree about rolling being better than point buy. I have crap luck and always end up with lower stats by rolling. Point buy at least guarantees I can get something playable that won't get other people killed. :P
