MCCC Deleting Sims
I turned on the setting letting you have more than eight sims in a household. I went into cas to change a sim's outfit and when I came back all of my extra sims were gone. 😞 ☹️ 😠

As @jpkarlsen and @JonaO703 said, it is hard coded into the game to only allow households to have 8 sims. There are several mods out there, in addition to MCCC that do allow you to have more than 8 sims in a household but none of them override the game when it comes to CAS. So every time you take a household into CAS, sims get deleted automatically. No one, as far as I know, has found a way to stop it.
But MCCC does have a way built in that does allow you to edit those households and not lose any sims. You have to do it through an MCCC option to edit individual sims. You can find the option by clicking on the sim you want to edit and select MCCC. Look for the Sim Commands option and select the Modify in CAS option. That takes just that one sim into CAS, not the entire household.
So that is a way to manage households of more than 8 sims and not have them deleted when you go to CAS. But you are stuck using that way from then on for those households with more than 8 sims. If you forget and take the household to CAS the normal way or through the MCCC option to Modify the household, then sims will get deleted.
Hope this helps.
