Wort Case scenario: Your Hack uses the next available Bit in forumoptions for "Show Quick Stats for this Forum".
Now the next vBulletin Version comes and redifines this Bit to "Prune this Forum every 24 hours".
Now all users of this Hack have the Bit set ...

The hack was not tested on the new version therefore it should not be installed.

Well, what does adding a custom field do?
It adds a record to Table profilefield and alters table userfield to have a new MEDIUMTEXT columd fieldxx.
This is just an easy-to-use frontend to alter the Database, so where is the difference?

Difference is the errors on the user side.

Keeping the Product Manager in mind, such DB alterations can be done easily, without the User having to know anything about running queries.

That's true. :) I still have to get used to the existence of that manager.
Oh, there is an array called $vbulletin->bf_misc_forumoptions, but I cannot find out how is it populated. :(
