Hot take? I dont like how you have to actively hurt your stats to get feats and vise versa

Imo ASI should be a passive that just progresses through levels like proficiency bonus, P.S. im not such an experienced player so you can critique and i can change my mind, but every time im thinking of building a character i dont like the debate between taking a feat a half feat or a stat increase. Stat increase is plain boring + to throws; damage etc
