So clearly +1 on having the variant human.
But for custom, fitting your own preferences, rules go mod. It is meant for this.
By this logic you would also want the completely lackluster Ranger class no one likes instead of the altered Ranger we have now? I'm just saying 5e is not perfect and since some things were changed, others can as well.

Exactly: I want the core to be implemented and then DL a ranger mod if wanted. I don't want to have to DL a 5e mod because the 5e BG3 porting is drastically altered by non 5e querries. And adding another feat IS a drastic change. I am not saying it is bad and I might even play it if modded. I am merely pointing to the fact having first a stable and efficient 5e porting is what matters.
