As long as they don't bork sideloading mods, I don't see a major problem, even if they kill the service. They will be able to offer model on console via their Paradox Mod launcher. It would cost them more to support Steam Workshop & console mods via a separate method.

Consider it against games with no official mod support - if they break your mods, you don't have a right to be angry.

While I think open and easy modding is an easy avenue to building a better fanbase and boosting sales, I also understand some devs don't invest in that.
