The "groping mode" is purely an extension of what has been part of Senran Kagura's core appeal since the beginning. To attack it means you are against basically the main thing Senran Kagura represents; good, light-hearted and irreverent ecchi hijinks. Which means it will not stop with merely Intimacy Mode, and Tom said as much when it first happened with Sony, and seemingly proved with 7Even's development troubles. They likely went after the clothing break mechanic next, and that's arguably THE defining mechanic of Senran Kagura.
