Bethesda is just trying to find a way to monetize mods. They just don't know how to do it correctly. I've been thinking for a while now that games will be moving more towards a platform, rather than a complete game. Think operating system. Android, for example, doesn't try to control all the content people make for their site. They just create a platform on which others can build. Which is what things like SKSE and other tools do really. They turn games like FO 4 and Skyrim into platforms that mod authors can use to build some really neat mods. Unfortunately Bethsoft has become a large company. Historically large companies have had problems creating things people like. They're better off letting entrepreneurs create good products, then buying them and maintaining them. They're not really good creators anymore. Bureaucracy does that to a company.
