@Vitani - The issues discussed in this thread aren't just about respec - look at the original post. It's also about other claimed broken /unbalanced changes - which are not part of D&D 5e and don't need to be there. If there is no option to disable these, if they are designed into the game, this will definitely impact the experience for those of use who want a 5e BG3.
This could all have been addressed by a "core rules" mode vs "Larian" mode. Then everyone would be happy (well, probably). This was suggested multiple times - and was supported in the older BG games.
