I'm pretty sure my group would have zero problem with such a proposed idea, but honestly I enjoy the intellectual challenge of keeping other races fresh and interesting when I change themes. It's part of the fun I have with D&D in particular as opposed to other fantasy RPGs and their settings. I enjoy figuring out what elves might be like in a Grecian-inspired setting, how halflings might fit into something India-inspired, or what humanoid races compliment a Russian-themed campaign best. I like brainstorming visually, and other races add interesting visuals. Of course, considering my professional resume includes Relics & Rituals: Excalibur and Olympus, this is likely not surprising.
So yeah, I'm not adverse to the idea; I mean, I've got plenty of experience with other "human-only" RPGs. I do prefer my D&D in particular with gnolls, but their absence in and of itself is not a deal-breaker.
(In fact, those other RPGs are why I didn't vote in the poll: I wasn't sure if the intention was specifically Dungeons & Dragons with only humans, or if other fantasy settings counted.)
