I forget the livestream, however the 'rulemaker' for WoTC made the point that Larian is, essentially, a dungeonmaster and if they want to change it, that's the dungeonmaster's perogative. Before that, they also made a point that's far more fundemental; BG3 is a computergame, not tabletop. That means many things that 'work' in tabletop 'don't work' in a computergame.
Sure, but it's equally within our rights as players to say that rule X - 5e RAW or Larian homebrewed - is dumb. Especially in this EA process of BG3 where Larian has specifically asked for feedback.
