My take on this is not that the request is unreasonable per-se; but that the game Larian makes is up to Larian. The game people want to make it into is up to modders. Telling a game studio that the game they are making is DnD and not their previous successful IP makes zero sense to me. It's like going into someone's Twitch stream and complaining you don't like the games they play...
You'd have a point if the game wouldn't originally have been advertised as a "game set in the Forgotten Realms using the D&D 5E ruleset". A lot of people, myself included, bought the EA specifically for that reason.
Yes, I'm well aware that deviation from the RAW are necessary to adapt them to the new medium and I even agree with
some of the changes. But a lot of changes were simply unnecessary or even in many cases bad.
Not to mention that the sneaky way of changing racial ASI work was most definitely not well done after 3 years.
