It just occurred to me that if I need to make a Bashed Patch in the future, say because of an added mod, that I would have to unoptional/unhide the original merged plugins. That said, is there any harm in making the optional in the first place?

I've been going through Fear and Loathing. I've just created my Bashed Patch and come back to Mod Organizer. The plugins that Wrye Flash/Bash noted as mergable are unchecked as expected. Is it possible/wise/dumb to mark those plugins as Optional in M.O.? As to why, it makes the plugin list specific to what's being used. It also makes it impossible to accidently check a merged plugin, although I don't know if that's the end of the world. I tried a few searches, here and using Google, but couldn't find an answer. Thanks Bob
