Correct. They have a lot of useful fixes for new players but I remember there are a few things about each package that I don't care for/don't use. A small example of this is the unarmored fix. While great for people who want to use that skill, I never do unless by accident or at low levels. Even my mages wear some sort of light armor and carry repair hammers.
Then you'll be happy to know that the Code Patch features are all optional. That's what I like about it. http://i52.tinypic.com/10rifbr.jpg's the interface.
Fixes for Savegame Corruption and Delayed Spell Crash are interesting, to say the least.
Concerning mods in general, I can understand since I tend to be picky myself. If you ever consider modding though, you can be sure you'll find plenty of amazing mods to expand your game.
