Yep. And Revised 5e has tried very, very hard to remove any cultural traits from the Species stat block. Dwarves don't even have any...

This is your culture. It has nothing to do with either your physical appearance or your abilities. You wouldn’t write half-German on...

Good catch. Indeed, the Revised 5e healing spells lost the "no constructs or undead" clause. Which was probably the reason they pulled...
