I think it's implying that most campaigns take place on the sword coast

This is a classic issue on world building, you plan a whole and dangerous continent, but moving the PC means loosing reccurent NPCs and track of the ongoing conflict where PC are involved.

So you end up focusing on one city and it's surrounding

They could also just make different adventures in different parts of the Faerun. But they'd have to actually update they're lore then.

You explained the part I got, I don't get the Phineas & Ferb or the title.

Probably refers to 90% of campaigns taking place on the Sword Coast

The one and only sourcebook for Fearun in 5e was just the swordcoast. Embarrassing. Farun is an entire planet!

Faerûn is a continent... Toril is the planet that it's on.

...... uhm.... SEE, if they would have put out an actual Guide to Faerûn I wouldn't have mistook it for Toril!
