On one hand there are the "mental attributes" INT, WIS and CHA. Those are controversial in being genetic so ok for me to remove from ASI, cause it could be considered some sort of "nazi" way of looking at things. But at least for "physical attributes" is completely nonsense to consider that cultural. In the world of D&D the physical complexion of a race originates physical performance in the same way as it happens in the real world. Starting from that it's obvious that some races are stronger or more agile then others and ASI reflect those difference. Remove it and the connection between physiology and game mechanics disappear. For me this is not a logical way of building rules / worlds. I care for flexibility in charachter building as I care for inclusivity but not to the expenses of a logical game mechanics. WOTC seems to push this beyond ending in defining CULTURAL something like STR or DEX: if I go outside the context of the game and think of it in a more general view i found that it stinks like an orwellian change in meaning of words due to ideological views and that offense my int and scares me.</blockquote>
