Please be advised that if you use the connect app, it doesn't always correctly parse links to lemmy posts. If they're not working for you, you can follow the whole plotline on my site. (These comics are in reverse chronological order, so start at the end and work backwards.)

I guess if you throw an egregious amount of magical power at a problem it DOES solve it!

If I had to homebrew a quick fix, I’d suggest something along the lines of “When making an attack, check, or saving throw while under the effects of a spell or feature that allows you to add additional dice to the d20 roll, such as Bardic Inspiration, you may only gain the benefit from one feature on a single roll. If multiple features would add dice, you may choose which feature to add the dice from when you roll.”

You don't need to because bounded accuracy doesn't need to exist, often it's actively detrimental. See the common houserule that some checks can't be attempted without proficiency.
