This makes me want to give humans something besides the boring "generalist" abilities, like +1 to all skills or bonus feat thing in my setting, but I don't know what lol

Does that mean they can run really fast? Or is it not on a leg?

I haven't played in a couple decades but I loved how 2nd edition handled it. Humans have one racial ability above everyone else, we're generalists. No special bonuses to see through illusions, no magical night vision, just the ability to be any class, and able to reach all levels in said class.
