I was already thinking along the same lines. Write stub libraries containing no-op replacements of these functions and raise the version number to "infinite" so that they will override the real versions.

I abstained from doing this because it could set off an edit war no one really wants.

Add to that, twice already - at least as I know of - an Easter Egg in some addon set off a thread with confused users asking "where did that come from?", often enough falsely placing blame or praise unto ZOS, and only after several days someone found the real culprit.

That definitely shows that these two libraries are only the part of a bigger issue and the reason why I proposed that addon descriptions should at least mention any additional functionality besides the intended one.

WORSE, Easter Eggs can bug. AFAIK one of them did bug on me. If it happens large scale, then you have a ****storm in the making where feces are wildly flung around, hitting people unrelated to the issue.
