Here I would prefer a elsif after the original case with a log telling category is "not enabled" in place of "disabled". This way, we can better understand why a module remains disabled while reading the log.

$logger->debug2("module $module disabled: '$category' category disabled");
$self->{modules}->{$module}->{enabled} = 0;
next;

Not needed, no module uses category param in their isEnabled method.
