Multiple, themed PHBs. You could have a "classic" PHB, a "steampunk" PHB, a "low magic" PHB, a "high fantasy" PHB etc.
That way, you could keep the peanut butter of warlord goliaths and warforged artificers OUT of the chocolate of elven wizards and dwarven fighters, if it's not your thing. Or add on a "wuxia" PHB when you want to run that sort of game.
It would be better than what we have currently, IMO.
Yeah, I know that you can say dragonborn don't exist, but even references to them and artwork of them is annoying. It'd be better if they were in some other book marked the "wahoo" PHB, and easily ignored if you don't think they're such a clever idea.
