Merging mods to increase Performance!
Claeric:
Your best bet in any case is to organize by type. I have combined files, but unlike those with maybe 3 or 4, I've got 27. One for each month/couple months of store stuff, one for buy mode, one for accessories, one for hair, one for skins, one for sliders...
It's easier to reset that way. If you start to build up a bunch of packages you end up not liking, it's easy to remake whichever package they belong to.
Unfortunately I managed to delete my backups so I am stuck with whatever files are already in these...but that's a benefit to smaller packages: If I want to get rid of some accessories, that's all I have to worry about. Even though I lost my backups, I won't have to build my entire downloads library again, because I can delete based on little groups.

Decrapify is a personal preference, much like your brand of toothpaste. Read up one what it does and decide whether you want to do it.
Decrapify is not so much a personal preference as it is a choice between whether you want a toothbrush or not.

I use my finger...
As for personal preference. I haven't read of any benefit from decrapifying store content I've paid for, as paid content installs and works fine (so far). I also don't install any CC as sims3pack, i don't use any CC kitchen counters, and I avoid most the trash that comes out of TSR. As the documentation of s3rc is very limited, i've not seen any reason for running decrapify other than fixing non-paid-for kitchen counters or being able to install non-paid-for content via the launcher of which I also avoid (prefer .package). If there was a convincing reason for me to convert my saves and content to decrapified versions, then I'd probably do it, but so far I've got no reason to do so.

I have two little questions: when I was running s3pe - while saving the packages, the program screen showed me some files with the types '0x7672f0c5', '0x73e93eeb' and '0x044ae110", all with the instance '0x0000...", should I let them quiet or should I delete them? And what about the "manually XML merge" thing? Should I import like package first, and then re-import like .dbc? ???
I am looking for the answer to this too, should all occurrences of instance "0x0000000000000000" be deleted or just the '"0x73E93EEB" occurrences as mentioned in the OP?
Madame Mim:
Suck it and see - so far I've been deleting anything with instance 0 and it's not killed my game.
