over 20 year old games aside,since we've learned more about game design since then, Within 15 minutes I found a mod for PoE, Solasta, and DA:O that is within the top downloaded mods of their category. Pathfinder games seem to have extremely small modding communities so I'm not surprised to see so few gameplay mods, it's mostly models and textures and homebrew stuff. Unrelated, but DA:O has so many sex mods... But among the most popular mods are ones that let you choose your own penalties and bonuses. And that's where my point is. They're going to be popular mods anyway, so we need to stop pretending it's not a feature that players want.
Your point is you don't like it so you don't want it to be a possiblity in the game.
My point is people do like it so it should be in the game without modding, but be optional so those that don't like it don't have to opt in.
I still want you to be able to play the game without it, you don't want me to be able to play the game with it. We are not the same. I fully understand your point, you refuse mine while belittling the idea purely with conjecture and strawmanning. Trust me, you're going to be okay if you opt out or opt into any optional features. All this for what was essentially a footnote. I would have accepted "I'd prefer not because I don't like it" and instead you've been essentially attacking the idea as if it is objectively bad. It's not bad, and it's not good, it's opinion. You could have respectfully disagreed and moved on and I would have shrugged and said not everyone will like the idea. Instead you got belligerent. I promise, this time, I'm done responding to you.
