Well, since it's all optional and it's a single player game.

The only bad thing is removing requirements for multiclassing (is it actually confirmed?) - it directly breaks the rules of 5E and actually takes AWAY from the game, imo. And also that bit about bonus spell slots which I didn't really get.

Instead of removing restrictions for multiclassing (which are STAT requirements), wouldn't it be more logical to roll for stats? Just let us spend 1 hour rerolling to get the perfect stats - our character would feel much more special.

As for Companion re-spec - it's a good option, what if someone hates Astarion, but needs a Rogue in their party? Make Shadowheart into a Rogue! Or you are dead set on RPing a Rogue yourself, but you are also interested in a monk very much - make Laezel a monk!

Part of the fun of Icewind Dale games was tailoring your own party. I did the same thing in latest Pathfinder games - used mods to re-spec the companions into the most synergetic parties possible.

But it's just an option - don't use it if you don't want to and keep everything Vanilla.
