One of my players (the same one) has raised a question about elves and perception in 5e.

What he says is this: A Wisdom of 15 should confer a bonus of +2, and if that were all that there was to it, it would give a proficient passive Perception of 12. Yet the example specifically says 14, and the only way to get 14 is to add in the Proficiency modifier, which at 1st level is +2. So it looks as if the intent is to add the Proficiency modifier where a character is proficient, and the SRD programme sort of forgot about Elves.

I admit to being a bit confused about passive perception, so is he right?
