If you're worried about pushing the wrong button, you can check "Show all games" in the launcher options, that doesn't remove Tribble (infact it even adds the Champs live shard as an option on your launcher), but it changes the buttons into a drop-down menu, and your last used shard is selected by default, if you don't mess with the menu, you wouldn't even know tribble (or CO) was there, so you can't accidentally select the wrong shard.
I can't imagine why it would, they are in separate folders on your harddrive, and tribble only patches if you have it selected. Not to mention that they don't release tribble patches as often as holodeck patches and rarely at the same time.
I haven't had any patching conflicts between the two shards.

What makes you think that's the problem?
