At this point will FFXIV collapse if all mods and third party tools disappear?

You're the wrong one but okay.

He's not. Anyone can go to Twitter and search the FFXIV tag there to see how a significant number of players openly make use of heavy modding...and that's just the players who don't show any tact or subtlety. If you dig deeper, you'll find that there's also people making money through selling mods to other players.

Over time, the game's demographics have shifted to accommodate such players. It's very likely why a lot of glamour and furniture for houses is now 'venue bait'. As well as features such as gpose being implemented as 'content'. The development team aren't oblivious to what is going on behind closed doors.
