[QoL] Add to Base Game (and applicable EPs/etc.)

What you actually need to ask for is an complete overhaul of the social simulation and autonomy AI. Just then the traits will have some actuall meaning. Sims 4 was orginally designed as a multiplayer game. And in a multiplayer game you don't need to invest money into deep simulation. Since Sims 4 is the recycled corpse of this multiplayer game, the necessary mechanics for deep social simulation and autonomous behaviour aren't either there in the first place or disabled by default. Also the necessary everyday animations for deep social simulation are currently not there. So you need to ask for a fix of the cause and not the band aid.

Sims *already* have limiters on interactions from preferences. It's half the point of preferences. Every single social interaction is FULL of tuning for preferences. Sims who dislike jokes DONT tend to tell jokes. 

This kind of tuning exists in EVERY social interaction and accounts for EVERY mood, social context (awkward convo, etc), social preference, etc. The example in the image modifiers a hidden "how interested I am in doing this" value for silly behavior, making it higher if the sim likes silly behavior and lower if they don't. If the Sim dislikes Silly Behavior but is also a Goofball, it might even out, or even swing towards doing it autonomously- depending on other factors like mood, social context, or even certain venues and events.

I made all my Sims dislike comedy (none Goofballs) and all told jokes/acted silly/earned comedy skill within the first few days of playing (on multiple save files).

Sims who dislike dance will still dance to music like non-stop. 

So I feel this just isn't happening. I had to literally make a personal tuning mod to stop all comedy skill progression to stop them learning the skill.

I think since the devs have shown they are willing to make toggles for existing features such as EbN Ailments. With this, more should be done for other (past and future) packs. 

This is obviously wanted, and accumulative annoyances as more and more packs come out, stopped only by uninstalling the packs with features that annoy—shouldn't be the way. 

Basically, devs have been getting only sporadic degrees of backlash over "various" features with "various" packs, and because it is an accumulative annoyance in many cases—this seems reason enough to ignored the requests as a whole. Only creating toggle for EbN, just shows that if concentrated and in short time span complaints, is the only time considered—would be a mistake.

Some people regret and uninstall, or bypass a pack all together due to select pack features. If it was common practice to have toggles for various/most/many features or sliders for difficult could/would most likely result in more people giving packs a chance (or simply buy just for the CAS/Build/Buy).

Pack reviews, "which packs should I buy" and "is ______ pack worth it", do tend to be used as the deciding factor whether to buy or not buy a pack for many people. I know when I see "______ feature(s) is/can annoying and can/cannot be turned off", can be a deciding reason whether or whether not I should get a pack. 

I hope the recent EbN Ailment toggle, gives devs a reason to reassess more toggles for features from (past and future) packs. But we also have to show them that is what we want or else is might just be overlooked.
