It is a very good thing you never played it either, you didn't risk becoming tainted by its evil!
Blizzard does not allow any mod that plays the game for you. You're exagerrating immensely. They've had some close calls but quickly shut them down, like AVR. And since I'm seeing "healbot" mentioned all over the place, despite the name it is not a bot, at all. It does not do anything for the player, it just presents already given information in a different manner.

If you've ever coded with LUA, you can't do anything the game doesn't specifically enable you to do. Square could very easily disable whatever commands they desire if they want to shut down certain functions. UI mods are NOT harmful if moderated, period. UI mods have very rarely ever "played the game for you" in any game, because developers simply do not let that happen.
