While I rarely play human characters, I very much approve of the lack of strong defining cultural trades within them.
First, it wouldn't make sense for a people so populace and spread out.Â
Second, because it allows you more freedom. Mid landers are only as boring as you make them.
On the subject of cultural lore in general, the other races really don't have it any better. The fantasy genre tends to treat the whole idea of culture, particularly for non-humans, as a handful of traits and taglines.Â
Take every shred of info we have about my fav race, the Roegadyn and you have only the barest, faint outline of a culture.
As a midlander you could literally create your own culture, easily make said culture richer than anything the other races have been given, and do it all without any real break in lore.
