Template:Yes Fixes some oversights in the vanilla game such as overly combative horses and allowing a follower to ride along with the player. (kryptopyr)
Template:No Goes much further than vanilla and adds many more features, possibly deviating too far from vanilla. (kryptopyr)
Template:Yes Most of the additions are optional and can be turned off or easily ignored (I don't remember if they start out turned off by default or not). The changes do improve functionality of horses in the game, but they don't really alter any other aspect of gameplay. Also, because all of the changes are centered on horseback riding, I don't think there is a high potential for conflict with other mods. (kryptopyr)

I'm still debating on whether I feel this one should be in Core STEP. It's such a huge improvement over the vanilla horses, and I don't think any of the mandatory changes really deviate too far from what I would consider to be vanilla-friendly enhancements. Nothing over-the-top and nothing that would break general gameplay in any way. I don't use any of the auto-looting features, horse armors, or horse inventory...but these are all easy to disable.

Template:Yes Changes are all vanilla-friendly and in most cases do seem to adhere to the original intentions of the game designers that just didn't get properly implemented in the vanilla game. (kryptopyr)
