Other people made rules, systems, classes, feats, items, monsters, ect ect ect ect ect that can be referenced, substituted or exchanged for their equivalents or added complete as new things to Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition. They are modifications to the system. Changes to it. It isn't like they are Skyrim that just so happens to run an an Xbox platform, they are Skyrim... modded and changed to have different rules. I guess for me, it comes down to the core here. SRD means System Reference Document. What system is the document referencing? If you say "5e", well, 5e means Fifth Edition. So the Fifth Edition of what? Is the Fifth Edition of Microsoft Windows? The Fifth Edition of Warhammer 40K? No. It is the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons, that is the system being referenced by the System Reference Document. So in trying to seperate 5e and WotC, it constantly comes across to me as saying "The System Reference Document created by Wizards of the Coast for the 5th Edition of Dungeons and Dragons has no connection to, nor any ties to, the 5th edition of Dungeons and Dragons created by Wizards of the Coast". Which... makes no sense to me.</blockquote>
