Eco Bugged Household (Random -25?)
So I was playing a new save, vanilla. Just set up the world-- Holidays, restaurants, families, the whole thing. I'm playing five brothers living in a rough apartment in Myshuno. I plan for them to esc...

If you don't use mods there is a vanilla way to decontaminate sims affected by nuisance Naps, just in case this is useful to you or anyone else.
You have to play a different household who know your affected sims, then invite them over to your lot, click on the mailbox and cheat 'on' the offending Nap, then immediately cheat it 'off' again. This should remove the Nap behaviour/attributes, or at least it used to when I had to decontaminate dozens of sims this way. I rotated through my households, and each one threw a party inviting the max no of guests, then when everyone had arrived I would cheat on and off all the annoying Naps in turn. I never used it with Back to the Good Old Days though as that problem wasn't affecting my sims. My issue was sims constantly playing with clay, programming and baking white cakes, and never doing anything else.
I cleaned up a favourite save of mine that Eco Lifestyle ruined last summer thanks to this method, which I was advised to use by some very kind and knowledgeable players on AHQ. I remain very grateful to them. I'm planning to use that save for CoL in a few weeks and let's hope there is no similar disaster. IMO EL is the worst expansion to date because two major features were bugged. Even now, the neighbourhood state constantly reverts to neutral in all my saves, and I've never been able to fix this. And after the big Nap clean-up described above I turned them off, and individual sims only vote in the Evergreen Harbor development ones or occasionally eco appliances.
