They can't and won't. For whatever reason they decided to take what has made their last 3-4 games long lasting (modding) and changed their system so much that modders have been saying it's simply too difficult to mod now (past smaller graphical things) and something about a file structure they used to use is now bastardized in some way that the game will always break their mods way beyond what a normal update would have done in the past when they do update the game or add DLCs.
From what I remember seeing some "big names" in modding Skyrim/fallout have said they're skipping starfield and moving on to better games.
To Paradox games (cities skylines 2) and Microsuck: ruining modding is so unbelievably short sighted it actually makes sense you did it. Corpos always go for short sighted moneygrabs... But we get it, a modder makes something similar to what you want to sell that means less potential money for you... So they give modding the shaft until their get their DLCs out and then they'll throw us a bone, except by then it is too late and we've all moved on.
