It's a patch that requires a "legitimately" acquired ROM to work. This is how sites like SMW World avoid C&D's, they host patches and mods and don't have the actual ROMs on site. Nintendo can't take it down because none of their code is there.

Didn't stop them for C&D plenty of mods for BOTW and TOTK.

Wasn't that more about cracking the encryption on those games and leaking them early rather than modding them?

No? There's no leaking happening over at gamebanana, why are you confusing it with the Yuzu situation?
