[CURRENT ISSUE] Sims 4 Failed to Launch Game

Okay.  I did all the things before the patch yesterday--removed my Mods folder altogether, stored my saves in another folder, etc.  When the "fix" went live, I made sure that I took all script mods or things that change the game in any way out.  Trying to launch the game with just CAS CC and BB CC gave me this error.  I tried repairing the game, restarting EA app, restarted my PC.  Deleted localthumbcache.  It still did it.  So I took the mods out and launched the game--it worked, yay.  I decided to try just putting hair, shoes, skin details, presets, skintones, and makeup back into my Mods folder.  It worked, I was in the game.  Accessed my save.  I played a little bit in CAS.  Then I wanted to play in Live Mode, which is when I realized that the house I had my sims in was literally ALL build/buy CC and none of it was in my mods folder lol.  So, then I was like that's fine.  I'll just bulldoze and find a comparable house for these sims.  Bulldozed, found a place.  When I went to place the house, it said I had packs missing.  Like, in a pop up.  I was like sure don't.  I have every piece of DLC for this game and it is all installed.  But, ok fine GAME, I'll check.  So I save and log back out.  Yep, it's all there, all installed.   I try to launch the game again--and this starts again.  I changed NOTHING.  But I'm still getting the Failed to launch game
An error on our end caused the launch to fail. Try again a little later.  Ok, that's uncool, but fine.  I go to open the Mods folder, nothing is in there.  I freaked out for a second because I, like a not-smart human, didn't backup the files that I put back into the Mods folder and thought that I lost all of that CC.  Don't worry though, I found it all.  It's safe.  Phew.  But, I took all the mods out and it still won't launch lol.  I tried all the things, I don't understand.  I got the game to load ONCE with no Mods, but now it's just throwing me that error over and over.
