Elemental perks are now mutually exclusive, preventing Chaos Damage (or other spells/enchantments) from scaling to abnormal values.

This mod makes the elemental perks in the Enchanting and Destruction trees mutually exclusive, so one spell or enchantment can only benefit from one perk at a time.
In the game engine, perks treat spells and enchantments as single entities and have to scale them in their entirety, rather than the individual effects like you would expect. Because Chaos Damage contains an effect of every element, all of them scale when you add a perk that affects any of them. To work around this issue, I made each elemental perk mutually exclusive with similar perks of different elements. Thus, Chaos Damage will get the same max bonus as any other elemental damage effect. This fix should also apply to the spells in Arcane Accessories from Creation Club.
