The good thing about mixing money with mods is it encourages long term support. Of course, not guaranteed, but I have first hand experience (7+ years both in and outside of monetized modding team) that it's one helluva incentive to keep mods up-to-date at a bare minimum.. Anyone above a casual familiarity with mods in games such as TES, Fallout, Total War, and such can recall at least one instance where a beloved mod was broken by an official patch, but the modder was no where to be found. That's not to say there aren't devoted people who will do this stuff for free into perpetuity, but I personally couldn't be fucked to carve out time in my busy schedule to hand out freebies for games I'm no longer playing.
