+ * it doesn't prevent the IFMLLoadingPlugin from being constructed, but it does
+ * prevent the methods from running.
+ * We are doing that because Thaumcraft's plugin is downloading the Baubles mod
+ * if it is not present and that will cause issues with this mod.
+ * This plugin needs to be sorted index below 0 to run before Thaumcraft's plugin.
+ * It neutralizes Thaumcraft's plugin by finding its corresponding CoreModManager$FMLPluginWrapper
+ * in the ITweakers list, and it replaces the reference to the IFMLLoadingPlugin instance with "this".
+ * As a result the methods from Thaumcraft's plugin will run 0 time and the methods
+ * from this plugin will run twice.
