Dunno, very rough idea so far Idea is to cover some very basic do's and don'ts

“Modpack”

Term	Meaning	Aliases
Mod	A Mod is a package of PBOs which can be loaded into the game, may change anything in game that Engine can handle.	Addon
Mod List	Mod List is a preset to load a set of Mods in once via Arma 3 Launcher. Usually distributed in HTML file.	Preset
PBO	PBO is a file type that can be recognized/loaded into the game, and used by almost all Real Virtuality games, including Arma 3.
Modpack	A Modpack is a Mod that has multiple Mods contents into one. The main subject of this section.

Pros	Cons
May reduce amount of Mods.	If the packing is done without a permission, it is very easy violation of some licenses and Steam Workshop EULA. May cause an outdated issue unless you update the Modpack which you never need to if you load the actual Mods in the first place. May cause an unintentional Mod overwrite/conflict. (e.g. if the Modpack contains ACE yet you load actual ACE, will make a conflict and could result an unexpected issue.)

Don't do it.
