I have made an entire playable dragon race template. It completely defies all 5e conventional design.

Or, instead of twisting 5e into a different TTRPG, just play a different one better suited to your goals for the game
That's a good alternative, but sometimes the issue with picking a different game that is suited for that one thing is that you want your game to do more than one thing.
Every other time I pull a PbtA game I end up banging against the walls of the genre and walking into the barren uncodified void of "I dunno, I guess you just do it".
So fuck it, we Homebrew!
And that's a major issue with 5e too? 5e is very clearly designed to do one singular thing; dungeon crawl, and I'd argue it doesn't do it that well either. There are plenty of actual generic ttrpgs out there you can use, like GURPS (literally Generic Universal RolePlay System) or even besm if that's your thing.
Yes. That was not a defense of D&D, that was a defense of Homebrewing.
