Gary didn't approve of this, making to me not a cannon material and that's all. We have lore about it, OP knows about it too.
I just straight up ignore the poor representations and lore breaking shenanigans like always with the weirdness brought by 5e. Still amazes me how they have this weird behavior of "me knows better than the people who created this."
Yeah 5e breaks a lot of lore for very little reason. At least there's a good reason for the sword coast being so diverse as the spell plague destroyed everything else so refugees are expected (not like WotC ever acknowledged that)
