Well, I just did the post 10 days ago-- but... fine, here is what I wrote up again. Maximum flexibility for player choice while still retaining enough of the flavor of the race to feel like it is the same race. One won't even need to worry about different stats for different subraces anymore-- they are all designed to feel like a mix of the various subraces and to be flexible enough that you can make something that would feel right for whatever the particular subrace is. You can have elven societies that are gradients between being High Elves, Wood Elves and Drow with those three being more extremes as you would usually get if there were regular genetic and cultural exchange between the different pockets of elves rather than everything being just one type.
