In my opinion a deviation from reality should only be done with a good reason. What reason was it to make ranged fighters Dex only?
I am getting a bit confused. That hasn't been done.
A 5E fighter throwing an axe can use STR. That is not DEX only.
A 5E fighter shooting a bow uses DEX as it has always been.
A 5E fighter throwing a dagger can use STR OR DEX
So you can still have a ranged weapon fighter that uses STR.
