Just refuse to use any weapon mod that doesn't use armor and weapon keywords expanded
That's not what keyword mods do.

You can add items to leveled lists via a super simple Papyrus script. Anyone know if someone's made a resource one yet? If not, I'll whip one up when I have time.

This isn't meant to sound catty, but I actually want to know: does Bethesda actually benefit from having a system in place in which mod authors can petition to have pirated mods removed? Why should they care?
The fact they've setup at DMCA takedown notice for pirated mods suggests they believe there's a legal aspect to it. Nobody wants a lawsuit kicking off.

Plus pissing off modders is bad for their strategy of 'use mods as a selling point'- people may stop making them. Sure, getting a mod pirated is largely inconsequential, but still, there's plenty of other hobbies you can have where you don't have to deal with these annoyances. Why force yourself to ignore them when you could just do something else for fun?

as long as there are nexus users to endlessly fellate them they'll never stop modding. Even the modders who take their mods down in protest against big mean ol' bethesda will throw them back up when they start to miss having praise heaped upon them by mindless internet strangers
There's definitely a lot of modders who do it for praise, but there's an equally large contingent like me who're self-motivated. I already regularly burn out on modding dealing with the idiots on Nexus, having to deal with bug reports from old & broken copies of my mod uploaded by someone else would just be too much.
