How a FFXIV mod/plugin (which works client side meaning that it affects only the user who’s using it) can affect your gameplay?
Mh?

Zoom hack gives an advantage in both PvE and PvP settings by giving the user of the hack a far wider field of view of their surroundings that they otherwise wouldn't have. In PvE this can trivialize certain boss mechanics, in PvP it obviously gives an advantage over opponents who have a more limited view of the battlefield.

For ACT, it literally does lead to exclusion of players, naming and shaming of them, etc. I don't even bother with progression, yet my characters ACT data is plastered on a third party site without my consent because of players who run ACT during roulettes and upload party parses. Why is my character's parse data being hosted on a third party site I want no part of?

'Dress mods' impact me because the RP community has been becoming increasingly insular and pushing away players who aren't also running the custom client with a particular plugin that allows them to see their 'custom looks'.

Generic 'cheats' in PvE ruin progression races. They're supposed to be tests of skill for those pushing for world first. Many of those cheats, zoom hack included, minimize or trivialize what are supposed to be challenging mechanics. And of course, if 'cheats' exist for PvE, they'll inevitably be used by players in a PvP setting as well, there's no decoupling one from the other.
