[QUOTE="gyor, post: 7364872, member: 6670153"] It's not an issue of being for my personal benifit, it's that PHB +1 leads to absurdly stupid outcomes. I could play a Drow or Dwarf Divine Soul or Celestial Warlock but not an Aasimar one. Same with the Shadar Kai Shadow Sorcerer and Hexblade. The PHB +1 rule don't fit with the release schedule, the way the books are written (only a fraction of any of them are player content) and the way they split races in one book, subclassses and other stuff in the other (EE and SCAG being minor exceptions). If they have done some situational exceptions like the SCAG Tiefling they might as well make race/subrace race exempt from the rule. And we already have exceptions for Gods and Background that can come from outside you PHB +1. I could make a Devil's Tongue (SCAG) Tiefling (PHB) Arcane Archer (XGTE) multi class Beastmaster (PHB) with a Background from Curse of Starhd, that worships the Cat Lord (VGTM), and pulls it's animal companion from MTOFs (if it has any animals that could qualify for being companions in it), so at this point your main argument no longer holds any water.
