Do I still need to remove or move my mods folder elsewhere whenever there's a patch update?

Still, the accepted wisdom is to move the files out to be safe and it only takes a few seconds really.
But you can always just try playing with mods in, and wait to see if anything appears broken before trying to find and temporarily remove the culprit.
(Make sure you make a backup copy of the save or saves you're going to play, if you do it that way.)

Why risk messing up any saves or your mods folder when it's such a simple thing to do?
It literally takes 2.4 seconds to cut and paste the folder to your desktop and just leave it there until you've verified/updated any and all mods/cc before plunking it back into your documents directory and turning them back on in the game options.
Whenever I start up my game and see that it wants to update/patch, I immediately close out of there, move my mods folder (and make a copy of my save file to that location too), and then start it back up to install the new update/patch..... and I only wasted less than one minute of my life to do so. One minute of my life versus losing possibly weeks/months/years worth of gameplay, save files, and downloaded mods/cc that might not be available anymore? I'll take the former because, much to my chagrin, I've already experienced the latter.
