First off, we want to note that the romance with Minthara in 'Baldur's Gate 3' is specifically designed for evil playthroughs of the game. However, the guide you're looking for attempts to go around this and pick out the appropriate lines to increase approval and avoid the main evil acts to achieve her approval.
It’s worked for some players who are determined to remain neutral good, by playing to her appreciation of strength and cunning rather than becoming all out evil. The way you time her various interactions to progress her romance while avoiding the ‘evil’ choices that would lock you into playing the bad guy for the rest of the game is a delicate balancing act. It’s not perfect by any means, but it can be very rewarding to find your way through her storyline this way.

No. That would ruin a lot of great things about the fandom, in my opinion. Every morally ambiguous character needs to be romanced by every protagonist in the story. It's better that way. And there's nothing that says every intense relationship has to end in a kiss. The intense history between Wyll and Mizora is deeply toxic. All of the bitterness and twisted intimacy of their deal is what makes their situation so compelling. Turning it all into a romance would somehow ‘fix’ it all and ruin it.
This would also miss the point of a deep, complex, story driven relationship in the game. The relationship with the cambion focusses on a deep story about obligation, regret and reclaiming one’s soul. Turning her into a romanceable character would turn this in to just another villain-banging simulator. It would also clash greatly with the heroic profile of the Blade of Frontiers, Wyll. Can you imagine the hero of the story settling down with a cambion who gets off on the suffering of others? The doors that are not meant to be opened should not be opened. There are plenty of other complex relationships in the game that could be just as interesting, just in different ways.

Installing this mod changes the tone of your game, adds new scenes and changes interactions with certain characters. Note that this does not modify your save game in any way; it simply loads in a different story module for you to play through. As a result of installing this, you are no longer playing through the standard heroic journey, and are instead treated to a far darker and twisted tale of power and corruption. This is one of the most interesting choices that the game has to offer, and whether or not the consequences of installing this are good or not depends entirely on the type of story you are trying to experience. To me, this is good.

This is more of an Easter Egg than a full story arc. Wyll needs to be in your party for the interactions with Mizora in the story, and then you can’t break the pact in Act 2. You then free her from capture, and after the Iron Throne and Ansur events in Act 3, you simply take a long rest, and she comes to you. The conversation is straightforward after that.

When you’re trying to resist the Dark Urge to become evil in a story, being in a loyal romance is your strongest storyteller mechanic to remain good. Your partner can talk you down from the edge, prevent certain scenarios from playing out and even help write you out of sticky situations. Burning that bridge by cheating on them, however, removes that check on your behavior and has far-reaching consequences that can even alter the soul of your protagonist and change the ending for you.

The polyamory option is very specific and needs to be completed in a very specific order, mostly following the drow twins in Act 3. As opposed to other true throuples, this is a one time, very consensual arrangement. Trying to continue two full romances without this trigger will eventually blow up in your face.

It’s probably easiest to just start a new playthrough. Follow all of the approval tips that you read on the forums (get approval high as quickly as possible, rest frequently, keep attention focused). Occasionally a save file just gets corrupted in a way that can’t be fixed without mods. That would be awful. Very time consuming, though.

Overall I’d rate these mods a B- effort. They’re not going to win any awards for writing, and won’t ever feel fully part of the game world in the way that the main game’s story does. But they do serve a purpose: as a stand of decent fanfic, you can just turn them on in the game world and get swept up in them. I’d really recommend these to anyone who’s ever wanted to see more of a particular character, especially if you’re playing through a particular story on a particular tack (I’m thinking especially of some fiend-pact roleplay scenarios here). They’re fundamentally amateur creations, and you need to go in with the appropriate expectations – they’re not going to have the same level of polish, budget, or narrative expertise as the main game. But they’re perfectly adequate as supplements to the game as it stands, and for the right player, the jank will be well worth it.

For a more complete experience, remember the sound. There are various music mods which add songs to certain scenes. Some mods add ambient camp dialogue as well. For example, a soft romantic song for Natasha in her Act 2 scene could greatly change the feel of that scene instead of using the regular camp music. There are also small voice barks (none too long or out of place) added for combat and exploration alike, which make her feel even more present in the story. These various mods enhance the atmosphere of the existing story and are meant to complete the world in which the romance story takes place, rather than replacing the core of the story with an alternate version of events. And sometimes mood equals words.

I'd really like to see what happens after a failed save in terms of giving in to a minor impulse while she's around, or getting caught in a lie about your actions. Presumably there are a number of disapproval dialogues and possibly even a number of break-up triggers. Those failure cases can be just as richly narrated as success cases, and relationships falling apart under extreme stress can be just as compelling a story as them coming together in the first place. It would be really tragic and compelling to see what breaks Karlach's unshakeable loyalty and prompts her to say "enough".
