Sword of Spirit
Legend
Just jumping in here without having read the discussion.
I see no need to separate out the options. I mean, how many DMs say, "no evil PCs" for most of their campaign? Probably more of them than not, and I've never heard of any great player rebellion over it because the options were right there in front of them in the PHB. I think this is one area where few players have a problem with feeling "player entitlement" just because the rules are there. The 3e PHB had all the materials, but said that evil alignments were for monsters and villains and presented it that way. I'm sure if they are simply trying to discourage new players from going evil that would get the job done.
I almost never allow (or play) evil PCs, but I'd really prefer it if all my content was compiled in the same place.
Given, if there really is some worthwhile reason, I'd support it. I'm just not seeing it.
