You just talked in a circle... And yes, it will get you banned. Any changes that give you an advantage over other players will result in a ban...
No, you probably wont. There are certain instances where modifying the game is allowed. One usually being in the graphical settings department. You especially won't get banned if it's not with the intent to have an advantage, and it would be extremely difficult to prove something like this is only used for the purpose of an advantage.
And even that's not true all of the time. Certain mods to the game can be made, and they only have the intent to cause an advantage. I've used this example before, Shroud uses at least one macro when playing. One being to make the Hemlock full auto when set to single fire mode.
Comes down to the devs, IMO it absolutely should be, particularly when you have to use a third party app to achieve it, its hard to detect AFAIK and its far a less accepted thing these days because old games had basic geometry anyway so the tweak (picmip) just simplified textures, in modern games it removes things like foliage which as far as I'm concerned is cheating.
