They were in the edition yes, but not in the PHB. It just seems wierd to me to credit Driz't for that in 5th ed, when he was around for 3rd and 4th, yet was unable to achieve that.
And it seems weird to me to credit Drow being in 5e to anything else at all. My experience is the VAST majority of drow fans that are my age or younger are that way because of Drizzt. Whereas only very aging grognards, older than me are that way because of anything other than Drizzt. And I'm middle aged and started on BECMI/AD&D 1e at 10 years old.
