Yes well the reverse argument can be made, that far to often modders don't pay enough attention to Lore or what ever you want to call it. There is another rampant oversight of modders is that when they are making stuff up, or expanding on Lore, they have what I call the "hundred foot tall wall syndrome" which refers to making everything grandiose or mythic. The best way to fit your mod into the existing universe is to make it seem like it was always there, and that finding it is not some great revelation. The more grand you make it, the more you will need to fit it into existing lore to make it seem like it belongs and eventually you reach a point when you cannot any more without it become a totally different universe.
