I agree with a lot of what you said. I'm pretty sure though that I read that the level cap was in place because after level 13 wizards gain access to level 6 spells, many of which would either be impossible to program properly or, if they worked as intended, would break the game.
Could have just excluded those spells?
Well, if you did you'd have the whole D&D community after you. Some of them weren't pleased that specific spell effects and conditions weren't the same in game, and that was a hot topic in the community when the game first dropped. Kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don't thing, so why break the game or disappoint players?
I mean. There's a balance to walk between changing things to make game play more accessible and fun in a video game setting, and making it broken and perhaps less fun to play.
