They're equivalent because of the same reasoning as the anons who said dropping jgk paints a target on them. If anything, it's worse, because Trek is definitely the only mod you're dealing with.

So now you're in and you join the sail discord and you're in Trekland and it doesn't look that way from the outside at all. I considered joining sail to play with friends and had no idea Trek was involved. As someone who has had issues with her, me apping without knowing and having to leave when it was revealed would be completely obvious and there is no doubt about how Trek talks about people she doesn't like both publicly and privately.
