you don't even need to be "just" adventure league (although that alone is a thing) but some games just don't allow for too many house rules...I am going to disagree with this one because of one specific thing.... Adventurer's League.
For people that only play in home games, I agree there is no reason to get caught up in a lot of this, you can always ignore it/change it. However, for those who play Adventurer's league, they are often bound to the changes that WOTC releases.... and so I feel have a legitimate right to criticize changes they feel will detract from the games they are currently involved in.
I know plenty of DMs who do not have the time/energy to sift through whole class/spell list from DMsguild/3rd party stuff.
I just started a new campaign this week. At session 0 2 players sprung 3rd party stuff on me. 1 was from someone I have never heard of, the other was a warforged modification to druid by keith baker. I did not even entertain the 1st. I did not have time to trouble shoot something from someone (who may or may not be professional and great as a dev) I did have time to look over something from a game dev I trust and okay it.
my Saturday night campaign I play in is going strong. We wont be restarting for months maybe a year... but if I too either 3rd party to the DM he would just say "NO" because he doesn't want to open the flood gates to everyone asking for him to review 3rd party things.
