Your argument is a poor one and ignores common sense and the scientific method. When you balance and compare things you have to control variables. Race is a variable and to control it, you take a vanilla human with +1 to all stats and use it for every class. That way everyone can get 16 in...

Then drop the +1 to the stat. I'm assuming most people doing these charts are just adding it to make the stat an even number. Long-sword proficiency is a much more specific racial trait that is much harder to come by than a simple +1 to your main stat. And saying "Monk does good damage as long...

Every race can get 16 in their main stat at the start. That's baseline across all races...

You don't balance a class with the hopes the player is going to pick a race that can use long-swords... So the monk in this chart is actually worse at damage than suggested.

That a real question? You do not balance a class based on what race you are...

When you are doing a DPR chart comparing classes, you do not take race into account. Removing the long-sword from this chart would drop the damage of the monk down.

The monk optional feature reads: "The chosen weapon must meet these criteria: The weapon must be a simple or martial weapon. You must be proficient with it. It must lack the heavy and special properties." Monks are not proficient with long-swords.
