Take-Two Is Removing Old GTA Mods Using DMCA Notices

I dont get "mod hostility", if fans have been moved to create by your work; what possible good can come of forbidding them to share that?

Is the original game such a finely tuned jewel that it encompasses the only proper experience of the game, and modification can only detract from it? I get that feeling from some publishers. GTA wasn't "mod friendly" in the early versions more from lack of robustness, I thought.
