Good point. It actually works really well since in MTG Kitt Kanto is a Cat Bard Druid so you can make a Tabaxi character who just happens to share the same name and has the occuptation of bard or druid (Except those are the worst options for Tabaxi, ranger and Rouges are best)
I mean, fuck it, it’s DnD. You do you as long as your DM is down with it.

Because of the stat bonuses? Just take the Monsters of the Multiverse version where you can choose the bonuses freely (everything else is the same).
Personally, I would not try to play dnd “optimally”, it takes away from the creativity and produces either bland or disjointed characters.
