They honestly should just implement custom lineage from Tasha's if they want that. It allows you to customize the stats. I don't think it is actually a huge problem normally because there are a lot of 5e races to choose from (40 by my current count of all official published material including UA). However, the game's race selection is rather limited at the moment and I don't see them adding too many more.
I would love to see an update that includes Tasha's handling of the races, just to broaden what's available without seeming 'suboptimal.' But I can also understand why there's a relatively small number of races in the game - There's enough different voiced lines and dialogue options referring character races that adding too many would add a lot of extra work - Though I'd really like to see at least Dragonborn show up at some point.
