What if it's both?

There's no way the Ice castle of the necrolord and the mountains of muscle aren't a Fire &Ice reference

Same with mine and Bennies. You can't take them with you after all.

Also if its from the developers of the system you also, hopefully, can assume that they are keeping with their own visions and intentions which should be healthy for the system. Even if its just "Story" content, it'd be really weird to see a room full of random sci-fi crap in what has up until that point been mostly a gritty fantasy dungeon. Also, people can rail against this all they want, but people tend towards authority. The developers and publishers saying X feat or edge or whatever is useable in X setting, it doesn't leave a lot of room for inter-group bickering about it, but even then its opt-in.

Yea this is 100% the issue here. If I wanted to make content, I would, if I purchase a book with content for a specific setting or scenario, then there had better be that content in it.

Oh I'm not. I don't even play 5e anymore unless someone else is running it. I moved my setting and campaigns to Savage Worlds.

I did so because I don't like that WotC sells me books that are half baked and claims it's up to GM to write the content they paid for.

Also the entire debacle the other year with the OGL.

Idk. I kinda of expect that when I buy something that all the information I would need would be present. But, I guess if you like having some of the information only, then it makes sense there's no rules for sailing space ships in the space sailing book. Especially since they charge you the same for modules with half the information in them as modules that have all the information in them.

Really d&d 5e is a mid system from an increasingly mid company.

I work in an IT call center and only make 25k. It's a nightmarish routine of answering calls from customers who don't believe in your basic right to be respected, answering to employers who believe the same.
