I can see how you treat your seed as a retreat from how you describe. But are you ever moved to start a new seed, keeping the old, to tromp around a bit with your character?

I usually rebuild as necessary, but otherwise I try to keep the original idea in place. For instance, a starter dock only needs to be wide enough to fit a raft and eventually a karve, but a longboat requires wider slip/berth that only takes a few minor adjustments.

For the warehouse I just build big from the start so that I can stuff more chests in as needed or flesh out a second floor that wasn't already there.

And I can't say new seeds with the same character is my go-to. If I'm going to start a new seed, a new character just feels ideal. A new seed with a pre-fitted character would feel a bit like an unfair advantage. Slaughtering the meadows with iron+ from the start would have its own appeal, but natural progression feels better.
