I'm afraid you may live in a sheltered environment in the table-top world, because that happens in TT as well.
I see this type of argument used over and over... and conversely I'm afraid some of you don't seem to grasp that "X game has balance issues already" should never be considered an excuse/free pass to introduce even WORSE balance issues on top of it.

The Hexblade/Paladin/Divine Soul is exactly the same sort of multiclass combo that people will be making in BG3.
Yeah, and now with some of these changes the "Sorcadin" or the "Palalock" will come with even less drawbacks compared to what they already were.
How is that a mitigating factor, exactly?
I'd argue that nothing is WORSE for character building than hexblade has been for 5e. But that is my opinion, you are entitled to feel differently.
My point regarding flaws in 5e is that BG3 is improving the rules in some ways, and arguably making them worse in others. It's a mixed bag, and for me at the current moment, the scales balance in favor of BG3 (even the WoTC crew are implementing some of the changes in DnD One or whatever they're calling it now).
It sounds like they are very much balanced toward the negative side for you.
However, I don't believe that any one person knows the exact right set of changes to make the game fit the perfect model for everyone. Anyone assuming they have that perfect answer may want to take a step back and give themselves time to process their feelings.
