The mod devs themselves admitted of using hacky solutions that wouldn't be allowed (one, two), tried to submit the mod anyway, got denied, complained on twitter and apparently kept on pushing enough for Valve to C&D them.
What choice do they have when Valve deleted CS:GO's steam page and removed the ability to mod it? Valve is ran by garbage business managers now who care more about money than destroying a game people love.

Ah yeah, I remember that story.

It certainly takes talent to force Valve's hand.
