That’s D&D and that’s what this game is - fantasy - a departure from reality but that doesn’t mean say no need for sleep or food etc …it’s elements of both to me at least.
I find bg3 very immersive & especially the combat - but that’s just me - if I wanted normal combat without heroic possibilities I wouldn’t play a game set in this world.
I highlighted a few key terms there. I would be perfectly happy, even love, for us to be able to do those superhuman feats after drinking potions of jumping/(giant) strength/dexterity/fly. I just have a problem with our level-1 characters being able to do these actions without magical help.

I can see your point - I think some actions can still be done by certain races that others perhaps shouldn’t be able to without magical assistance. I do like that Larian appear to be working on the shove & jump and it’s based off attribute scores but always room for tweaking that - I don’t think it’s to far off the mark though.
