This might have been answered before, but I see no way to search the comments or threads and don't see an answer in the first few pages of either here.

If I have this mod installed from the workshop and I try to play a vanilla multiplayer match, what will happen?

I assume it's one of three scenarios, but I want to be certain which one before I recommend this out to friends:

1. Launching with EAC enabled simply won't let me do multiplayer matchmaking etc. (or launch the game at all) with the mod installed. To correct this, I presume the solution would be to unsubcribe from the mod in the workshop and launch the game again with EAC enabled. If that presumed solution is not sufficient, what would the steps be to clean the game files? Verify integrity? Reinstall the whole game? etc.

2. Launching with EAC enabled and the mod subscribed results in a ban.

3. The mod can remain subscribed in the workshop and you can play vanilla multiplayer without issue if you select the vanilla multiplayer after launching with EAC enabled. No ban risk, no need to juggle installations.

Thanks in advance. Some of my friends would love this mod, but they play a lot of online multiplayer. I don't want to recommend something that could end up banning them if they make a procedural mistake.
