look i get your point. some stuff like reshade and textools isn't as they don't mess with the game directly but there are lots (specifically in the dalamud quick launcher) that are outright cheats in this game as they do mess with the game. That is what square is really after. I think they know about the character modding community but don't care because its not modifying in game to give an advantage over other players. whereas the james webb telescope mod gave a clear advantage.
