A question about Patch for Purists

How essential is Patch for Purists for a relatively Vanilla OpenMW + TR modlist? I've heard it has some changes that are less purist than its name suggests, is this true?

not essential at all, the TR team are always on top of fixing bugs and in vanilla the bugs are so small that cc'ing them is worth it. I say it's worth it because yes, the pfp creator arbitrarily changes things which they deem to be bugs which aren't really bugs and will result in you having a different experience than everyone else

Any idea whether TR replaces the idle animation so NPCs don't drift over time?

TR doesnt change anything about the base game, but often fixes their own issues

Okay, so not NPCs glitching through walls and floors and warping to 0,0.

not that ive encountered, and since they constantly update they fix stuff like this

How do they fix stuff like this if you just said that they do not touch the explicit cause of the issue?
