I'm pretty sure we had someone on this very forum that pointed this out REPEATEDLY whenever they did their PfH circus shows.
Thats because Larian wants the game to be unbalanced. Their design style is letting the players do unbalanced, crazy stuff and laugh about it. Its something they encourage.

And more than once Larian has shown that they dont like D&D 5E and think its boring, so they wanted to spice it up with items, tadpole powers, weapon abilities ect.
(Not that they are totally wrong, 5E has been dumbed down into a boring mess)
