Who is kitchensinking? And would it really ruin it? Do you really think the spice thing is a good analogy? I don't, but I'll run with it. Perhaps if I gave each race a perfectly equal place in the world, each with an entire fleshed out nation on the same continent. But I need not do that. Some of them are nothing more than a pinch of salt, and others are admittedly added by the spoonful.If you kitchensinked everything in the 4E core into every world, it would ruin them. Do you understand what this actually means? It's like using your entire spice rack on every dish. It's not good cooking, nor good worldbuilding.
If someone really believes your dish is too bland and needs some ground chilis, because he simply really likes spicy food, no matter how many times you tell him he'll just have to make do with the basil and the ginger already included, it isn't going to satisfy him.
