I don't follow that logic, it's just 'whataboutism'.
I don't consider what I have mentioned about BG1 and BG2 an issue in the first place. I'm fine with how those game handled the classes. I don't care about balance, as long as even those clasess that are considered weaker (which apparently spellcasters are in BG3) can progress in the game.

Classes considered "weaker" to what exactly?

Really don't follow what point you are trying to make. If you don't care about balance in BG3, why are you trying to bring up imbalance in BG 1/2 as some sort of "but what about" in defense of the imbalance in classes in BG3 that is resulting from game mechanics that are diverging from 5th edition?
