A free feat from the start? Seems like a suggestion a millennial would do.., too impatient to progress slowly, must have everything from the get go. This will hurt the feel of progression a lot and also imbalance encounters are characters are too powerful.
The feats/ASI are supposed to be a tough choice. With your sugegestion everyone gets everything. I take feats quite often, but even those who don't, it's not really an argument because the full game is not out yet. You might take ASI at lvl 4 but at lvl 8 you probably want a feat as that stat increase will give diminishing returns compared to a feat the higher level you are.
If you really want this suggestion come true, you can get a mod for it and let everyone else play the game as it's intended.
ASI are preferred choices now mostly because the companion stats are so badly distributed that they are in dire need of ASI.
