It's not just a stupid idea, it's terrible PR. If you owned a company that put out a game without mods it just might work, but with a huge third party mod community, it gives the impression of a direct slap-in-the-face. It looks like Bethsoft (whether true or not) is going into direct competition with modders, this after having grabbed some of the best modding community's ideas in Morrowind for its own in Oblivion. There are a lot of displeased modders and mod users out there, and I really don't expect this level of displeasure to die down for some time to come.
