Meanwhile an official game feature with those same issues would never fly. That's why SE can't just easily add in all the things mods can do.
That is true. But the reason behind is, nobody of the modders knows exactly how a mod must be made to work flawlessly. SQEX could make a contest for new hairstyles, clothes, faces etc. and tell the modders how to do that. There was already a weapon contest and SQEX offered a weapon template. The same thing could me made for other things. And the best ideas could be put directly into the game.

The mods exist because the game itself has so poor character creation options.
