There has been a good amount of tribal support recently that lets you choose your tribe. I'd like some help putting together a list of those types cards.
I started with a gatherer search for "choose a creature type" and this is what I found:
The only other cycle/group of cards I can think of that you've missed is the changeling mechanic. Mirror Entity, Taurean Mauler, Nameless Inversion and such. While they don't ADD any tribal synergy, they do contribute to an existing tribal theme. Runed Stalactite too, although this ignores ETB tribal effects so is only of use in fairly specific cases.
Riptide Shapeshifter is a card I forgot about but looks amazing for nontribal decks. You stock your deck with a variety of creature types so it can turn into exactly what you need at that time.
Something more pertinent to this thread: Mistform Warchief. Whatever tribe you build with, you can get a cost deduction for it.
If people are sick of reading about stuff just stop taking part. You have 100% control over what you read. Simic Ascendancy isn't going to get banned just because you didn't tell someone to shut up on the internet.

Then there are cards that care about sharing a creature type:
Does anyone know of cards that have tribal synergy that don't fall into those two categories?
- Aphetto Dredging
- Crown of Ascension

- Crown of Fury
- Crown of Suspicion
- Crown of Vigor
- Defensive Maneuvers
- Elvish Soultiller
- Grave Sifter
- Harsh Mercy

- Patriarch's Bidding
- Peer Pressure
- Riptide Chronologist
- Riptide Replicator
- Riptide Shapeshifter

- Volrath's Laboratory
I wouldn't rule out Arcane Adaptation, Ashes of the Fallen, Conspiracy, Mistform Wakecaster, Xenograft and the likes, as they can enable odd tribal commanders like Reaper King.Something more pertinent to this thread: Mistform Warchief.
