As of right now, plugins are indeed cheats, hack tools, mods, illegal programs, or whatever you would like to call them as stated by the ToS.
They aren't (all) cheats.

It's that cut and dry.

What performative enhancement does upscaled armor textures give you? Honest answer, stay on topic, don't whatabout Cactbot or whatever. I have conceded such gameplay/mechanical modifications are cheating by definition.

But how are texture mods cheating? By your very narrow (lol ironic af) definition of "not officially made by SE? It's a cheat!", you would consider them cheats. So how are they cheats?

What gameplay advantage does shinier visual armor give you?

How does it affect raids that you can see "nicks" on an armor texture?

How does Viera having hats give a WF Savage party their clear?
