Is just a feature of common sense, sorting the mods manually.. I have used Vortex after made this post, I've installed many mods, and tested the game Skyrim SE, I noticed the automatic load order sometimes make the game glitch, even If the I use the tool features of choosing to put the mod after or before, would be easier to sort that specific mod manually

You know that you can turn off auto sort, right? Otherwise it works EXACTLY the same as LOOT (because it IS LOOT).

... In my opinion Vortex is for people who are starting in modding, with complex mods is a mess to use..

How so? Currently I have Vortex managing 299 mods successfully for SSE.

In my opinion Vortex is perfect for managing large mod lists. I manage over 300 mods for Skyrim SE with no issues what so ever. The ability to flag plugins as .esl is great just like the integrated Loot.

The support for Fnis works great. Just like deploying other tools. Works great managing Lod's, ENB and SKSE. It is very easy to manage load order with Vortex (anyone saying managing plugin load order is not possible with Vortex is simply wrong).

As far as complex modding, most if not ALL of my mod esps, are customized by myself.
I usually run a weightless script on my load order to make ingredients, scrolls, rings, keys and books weightless (Because I think it's stupid to be running around in full plate armor and all of a sudden I can't move because I picked a Juniper Berry)

The script also TAGS everything in my load order as well, (Scroll), (Key) (Spell Tome), (Potion) etc.

So, out of 259 esps and esms, probably 30 never get touched.

I also download mods that make game setting changes or add more gold, to a vendor etc, so instead of having extra esps for those things, I just load them up, make my own patch, and COPY AS OVERRIDE all of the game change settings from those types of mods and combine them into one big patch, and uninstall the original mods.

I also use WryeBash, mainly for the Tweaks, and use MatorSmash for the Leveled Lists, or sometimes just stick with WryeBash instead
I usually have Xedit open more than the game itself.

So, I beg to differ, Vortex is a fantastic tool for "complex Elder Scrolls or Fallout modding", I should know, that's what I use it for.
I even have my own custom version of VIS-G that removes all of the Icons that causes Fallout 4 to crash when you find a unique item, as I prefer TEXT tags, icons mean NOTHING to me, at my age where I forget what they represent between play sessions.
