D&D General Are you content with what you have in DnD regarding physical/digital material?

Given the PHB contains some of the most powerful classes, spells, and feats, I'm not really sure power creep is the real problem here.

Let me see if I understand:

1. Currently the PHB has the most classes, spells and feats due to only moderate amounts of player-facing content coming out.

2. You posit that it also contains some of the most powerful classes, spells, and feats. Sure, I'll agree. Not exclusively, we've got some artificers, bladesinger, war wizards, new and revamped races, and more. Sure, I'll give that it has the most.

I am unsure how you get from there to the conclusion that more player-facing content can't cause power creep. We have 3.x as a historical example, but we have plenty of 5e examples that if they publish enough there will be power creep, like the Twilight Cleric or Silvery Barbs. It's already demonstrably so.

For 5e, I have more than I am apt to need for the rest of my life.

If for some reason I picked up 5.5e seriously, I would need some more stuff.
