This may prevent the error but it doesn't really resolve the issue since it will fail to parse any ea games by returning early. Perhaps the better solution would be...

Probably worth opening an issue to restructure the installer_quick system. I sort of understand why it does what it does in that it's trying to find the simplest 'valid' mod...
