[LE] Backport question

Hello :smile:

This question has already been asked more than once, but there was only one answer to it everywhere - re-creation. However, I see a lot of simple backports via CS on the nexus.

There are two options for backporting mods, "dirty" (re-save in CK) or re-create in TES5Edit. I rebuilt (its a very boring process) 2 mods: Alchemy Potions and Food Adjustments, blade and Blunt and dirty resave a dozen more, like Obscure's College of Winterhold, Sacrilege, Mysticism - A Magic Overhaul (with correcting miss records).

Both types work perfectly, no CTDs and errors (and these are really large gameplay mods). So are there a REAL pitfalls?
