Haters are going to hate, lovers are going to love, and neutral positions will be ambivalent, but overall it makes no sense to me that casters have a flexible choice mechanism in spells, but there is no equivalent for the martial side of things; unless you are a paladin, ranger, or similar hybrid (with spells).
4E was the closest to equaling the playing field for classes, but it had a host of the problems with the main complaint being the unified system (like AEDU) went to far. I can see merit in the argument, but then 5E totally abandoned that idea, except for the Battlemaster which is limited in its choices, and there is no reason why the a subclass like the champion would not have access to those choices.
