I voted for traditionnal too but you over simplified it in my opinion.
If there were a choice in the middle I would have voted for the middle choice which is exactly what BG3 is...
There are many changes I like but at the same time, I also think that DnD has many rules more interresting than what we have even for a video game... (reactions, shove-ready-dodge, items, rests,...)
But I'm glad that Larian is trying to improve or add new mechanics.
(highground, potions as a bonus action, weapon skills even if I don't really like what they've done, more items variations even if I don't really like what they've done, surfaces even if I don't like what they've done...)
I have many complaints about the game but not strictly following the rules isn't one.
