You do have a point that the number of races in each PHB has been steadily declining. It's true that the PHB3 had only 4 new races, but it isn't hard to imagine WotC being able to maintain that number for at least a few more PHB's. There are, after all, a lot of untapped races from previous editions (though many were considered "monstrous").As for your point about general feats, I must disagree. There were 39 heroic tier feats in PHB1 which were associated with neither a race nor class. In PHB3 there were 35 general heroic feats, which hardly seems "very thin". While the number of "general" feats is less comparable outside of the heroic tier, the total number of all feats in PHB3 is greater than that of PHB1 (173 vs 161). It's also hard to imagine that WotC could run out of new feat ideas when the largest source of feats, by far, is dragon magazine, which continues to publish new feats monthly.</blockquote>
