Combine replacement mods with the original or no?

[Echo]

Say I have an armor mod and then I've also installed a mod another author made to change the texture and/or 3D model of the original armor. I don't ever plan on wanting to uninstall the new texture but keep the original, so should I combine both of those mods into one for organization purposes or leave them separate?

 

(Edit: The replacement mods aren't standalone and require the original)

Since the 2nd mod with the texture change wouldn't need to have a plugin and therefore isn't taking up a plugin spot, there is no reason to merge them, you aren't actually gaining anything.

I would leave them separate, personally. Lots easier to change things. (Yes I did read you said you're not intending to, but things and minds change)
