The problem is that the reticles changed by mods were embedded into HSFX History Mod. IF you disable the HSFX History Mod then your game cannot be run modded unless you go back and use UI 1.25.
Unfortunately as has been pointed out, HSFX was not made for the community as a whole, but rather for a specific group and their campaigns. If they liked the mod then it was made part of the core mod. The result of jumping on the band wagon so quick by those who made the decision that HSFX is the way of all future modding for the rest of us is that any inaccuracies will not be fixed any time soon unless the specific group that created the HSFX structure recognizes the inaccuracy or decides that fixing the inaccuracy fits their needs and allocates the time to fix it. The rest of us are stuck with mods we don't like as or are inaccurate as default and have no way of disabling them. In some cases creating a separate mod to override the embedded mod doesn't work and causes more problems.
Default Reticles, Cockpits, aircraft and ship skins should not be changed. To change one a mod should be made to allow an individual to make the change as we can do now to change the default skin of aircraft.
So I agree with you Billfish items like reticles should have been left alone.
