Just to be clear, this is how I've always advocated it being brought back since their first discussions around why they made the change.
To me, what makes it "risky" is the skill level of the modder that takes it on, plus their availability and, for lack of a better word, "longevity" with this game (we all have other lives; sometimes we get busy for a while, or we simply move on to another game).
(I wanted to work on doing a mod for this myself over two weeks ago, but I kept pushing it off cause dealing with UI code gives me headaches, and then about a week ago, now, my work got hit by ransomware. I've been putting in 16 hr days since and so have had absolutely no time for modding/playing... or doing anything, really. (I'm typically getting 4 hrs of sleep per day right now, and not always at night....))
