It was a hyperbole... Thousands of add-ons would mean that there are thousands of software developers playing the game. I would wager that there are certainly less than 100 software developers (real developers, not hobbyists) with skill on the windows platform (windows is a monster to develop on due to a lot of non-standard stuff that MS does) who also active enough players of the game to even warrant making changes in their free time. Even then, software developers have a secret oath to not reinvent the wheel, so duplication of other work is discouraged. There's only some much unique things one can do with an already limited UI.
