On Xbox One at least, Skyrim and Fallout 4 both have 5gb storage caps for mods. True, no SKSE or SkyUI, but you can still get almost every other mod that's available.
On oldrim I used 30 gigs of mods like a decade ago. 5 gigs seem super low.
At least in my experience, it was my first time really modding anything. I had had access to a PC years ago when I was a small child, and I played stuff like Garry's Mod where I'd just build crazy contractions (dare I say I got kinda good at it, who knows how much better I'd be now if I was able to keep up with it).
After a while I lost access to the computer, but I still was able to play console games, so that's what I mainly gamed on for a very long time, up until just a couple years ago when I finally got a PC.
So I'd say if anything, it's a great introductory to the possibilities of mods to console players, and like me, it may push some to actually get a PC to do more with their games. In all, I'd say it's a positive thing regardless.
No, not almost every other mod. Only small ones. Total conversions like Enderal are not possible:

This mod is essentially a massive (50 hours just for the main story) free AAA RPG with its own world, story and mechanics. It even comes with professional voice acting in German and English.
