Side effects of uninstalling mods
❓question✅answered
This post is along a similar vein to my last...
1) So I know it's up to the discretion of the mod creator to tag it with the proper tags, so some things very well could be #vanilla-friendly even if not tagged as such. This mod in the attached photo is a case like that wherein it's just a UI change so I imagine I could flip it on and off without effecting my vanilla world?
2) Also I'm not sure if I just misunderstand but only the mods marked with #cheats would be the ones that disable achievements right? Even though there's plenty of mods out there that are really cheesy to progression that don't technically count as "cheats", leaving achievements enabled.

Solution
saving the game with mods once sets a flag such that if you open it in vanilla later, it will warn you that mods were previously used. maybe that is what those people were worried about?
if you use mods to create vanilla buildings that are in an invalid state somehow, that could theoretically persist even when the mod is uninstalled, because it's saved in the vanilla building. have only seen this happen with Smart and Mass Upgrade when it creates broken belts. even in that case, you could use a tool like SCIM to remove the corrupted belt
