That's what I'm saying though. This doesn't do that. All it does is slightly restrict which races the the power-gamer has access to for their combo. It's only really punitive for the role-played who is going for the unplanned, unoptimized combo.Some might say "limiting interesting race/class options," others are saying "prevents cherry-picking and problematic combos." If Multiclassing isn't allowed or abused at your table, this isn't really necessary and the optional rules are probably fine as-written.
I'm looking for a Goldilocks version, though...something that's harder to exploit, but not an outright ban on multiclassing.
It doesn't stop the sor-lock. You just have to take a race that favors warlock (I think - I'm not an optimizer myself - so I'm assuming the low class in that combo is the warlock).
It doesn't fix the problem you set out to fix. Unless your only concern is MC/race combos, which seems odd to me. And it creates other problems, for those not seeking to abuse the rules.
