I wish someone would script this, or publish a completed folder (less the official assets that those of us who own a copy can paste in), I want to play this, but there's no way I'm going to spend hours and hours and hours following those instructions ...

There is portmod, which is an attempt to semi-automate the process. It's still a rather manual and clunky process, for example there is no scripted downloading of mods from Nexus. But it automates some parts and holds your hand through the others.

I believe a lot of mod authors frown upon this for some reason.
Mod authors like having feedback and recognition on their own work, which might get lost if their mod becomes part of a whole big mod pack.
Yeah, but the end result is that I just never see their work at all. Seems a bit counterproductive to me.
