Nothings wrong with you wanting less options, since it would make the game more fun and/or convenient for you.
Okay, but isn't it more likely that the game will be maximally fun and convenient for you if there are options?

Fun
It's unlikely that Larian chooses the set of mechanics that perfectly matches your tastes. But with options, if there's some mechanic you currently *do* like, then Larian making an option differing from it *shouldn't* (see below) hurt you. And if there's some mechanic you currently *don't* like, then Larian making a different option should make the game strictly better for you.

*depending on the effort involved in adding that option and the corresponding lack of effort put in other aspects of the game, of course. But on average, this unwanted (to you) cost should be made up for by the benefit of options to mechanics you dislike!

Convenience
By definition, the options I'm talking about will make setting up the game more convenient if you want them, and no less inconvenient if you don't. Larian is--almost certainly--ALREADY including at least a few different difficulty settings in BG3; having an unobtrusive "more options here" button won't affect people who don't care, but will be greatly appreciated by those who want to further customize their playthrough.
