Do people in SFV complain that people run mods when it's also a cross platform and by the way, highly lucrative and competitive scene? Not at all

Why? Because the mods don't affect YOUR gameplay

If you ran to Capcom screaming they'd ignore you as well just like SE is and that's a game played competitively with real money prizes at stake.

And that game has frame data recording in live matches, hitbox detection mods, model retextures and so on.

Capcom doesn't care because it does not affect YOUR gameplay.

So you can take your authoritarian desires, turn them sidewise and stick them somewhere.....else.
I'm very interesting that this game should be protected in a better way than it is today so you are very wrong there. I have been playing this game since 1.0 minus the down time for 2.0 launch. And I love this game. It's a beautiful game with a great story and many nice memories. In the beginning it wasn't much talk about using unauthorized third party software. This is something that have been come more and more of later. And this game on the PC version does not come with any protection mechanism against this. So the use of unauthorized third party software will grow and they will become more and more advance. Now In the later years the mods are on Free Companies discord servers and being talked about using without mention that is not allowed and consequence. I dont belive Square Enix doesnt care, GM told me to report the player through their Support page using "Report a case to the Special Task Force". And my authoritarian desires sure heavy mod users might feel that. But someone should not feel bad posting screenshots that are "vanilla" and getting comments that pictures didn't have certain features because of mods.
