I imagine having such an expensive cast meant they had to cut back on the number of episodes.

This movie just came out at the wrong time. Height of the Iraq War, a movie and Christian/Muslim relations just came off as preachy. Also I don't think it needed to change the actual history so much, Balin's made up backstory was unnecessary. But the film was amazing, no living director makes better historical epics than Ridley Scott.

Does HotD give us a reason why black people exist or something?

The point is that diversity can be more than just tokenism. Writing roles with substance for people of colour instead of adding them in and pretending like race doesn't exist. HotD really did a great job with it while RoP was extremely on the nose.
