You make another race quicker, smarter, more confident, insightful, or whatever. Once you do that, you are, by default, making the others effectively weaker or less in that area by comparison.Say elves are DEX +2. Great for them. What about the Dwarf? Why isn't the dwarf DEX +2? That means the Dwarf is less dexterous than the Elf. Other races will be less intelligent than Gnomes. Others will be less confident than Half-Elves.So what is wrong with one race doing something or not being as good as another race? Nothing IMO, but whatever.Finally, you give one race a feature such as darkvision or powerful build or whatever, and other races don't have it. Does than make them less? Nope, just different.Now, if you give one race stuff and don't give other races something as well, then there is a problem because you are basically saying "this race is better than that one because of XYZ, and the other race isn't good at anything, so is inferior to the first one." THAT is a problem, but fortunately that is not the case.</blockquote>
