There is nothing wrong with Kobolds being slaves to dragons and salamanders being slaves to Efreeti because that's just additional lore.   There is nothing forcing you from using it.  5e doesn't have pages of empty and uninspiring formulaic stat blocks.   On the other hand if a monster like the kobold was renamed to Mybold that would be a crime.  It would cause confusion.   As for the Far Realm, I couldn't care less. That plane is not part of traditional D&D cosmology since it originated in 4e.  I don't see why it's such a big deal, but perhaps it has something to do with how much 4e trampled over traditional D&D lore.</blockquote>
