Sure you can, because those are two different things. Feature creep applies to functionality that is there straight out the box. Add-ons are things that are built ontop of the out the box solution.
To put it in hardware, if you buy a PC then a PC is what you get out the box. If every PC had to come with a dedicated graphics card that would be a PC feature creep, because every PC doesn’t need a dedicated graphics card. However, that doesn’t mean you want mobo manufacturers to remove the PCIe slot, because you might want to add on (pun intended) a graphic card.
Just because I think something shouldn’t be in the baseline for everyone doesn’t mean I also don’t want to those things to be available for the people who do want those things in their system
You can’t be against feature creep and for add-ons. Those two are entirely antithetical.
