Legend
I imagine a group of designers could pretty easily come up with examples for a 'typical' D&D world, with tropes rather than specific names. Then settings could have more precise versions.
Like, do you remember back when they were teasing 4e, and wizards were going to get to pick stuff like "golden gryphon school" or something? And it was going to have a suite of bonuses and powers. (I think it was stuff like, 'your spells that deal acid damage do +2 damage,' and the like.)
But people balked because it wasn't from an established setting, so WotC filed off any worldbuilding?
