It's not always cheats. Some mods are just basic QoL changes. Most of what I use is just to reduce button/key wear and tear so I don't have to mash them more than necessary. Like planting and "popping" crops en masse, but still requiring the proper stamina and durability on the tool in order to do so. Or auto-repairing gear when accessing a workbench/forge so I don't have to mash the button. Or queuing up multiple craftings at the workbench or kettle for, again, less button mashing and even saving a few seconds from it being done at the most optimal speed, one after the other. Or auto-equipping a shield when switching back to a one handed weapon.
