Island Reflections

I get that feeling too. I started up the sanctuary on a second character that may want the motorbike mount (Twelve save me) and there's this lovely wild tangle of jungle plants directly opposite the hideaway that gets erased while you're off gathering your first lot of materials and turned into the blank space for building your workshops. And every step of the way is "you should delight in tearing out these trees" (which apparently go to waste because we get zero logs out of it and are then obliged to go cut down even more trees elsewhere).

I was also disappointed to find that "completing" the animal enclosure meant tearing out the thicker of trees that was providing shelter for them and leaving a great empty paddock of nothing.

I don't see it that way. Aethereal regeneration happens every 11 nodes, so the trees grow back quickly, same goes for animals we catch they are replaced quickly don't over think it have fun, I do. I am there 8hrs a day.

Every time I log out from the lighthouse I come back at the same point. Sorry I didn't add this true finding.

Then you've somehow found the one seat in the zone that is permanent, because I've had no such luck. Whether I leave my character dozing on the bed, sitting in the hammock chair, sitting outside the windmill gazing at the ocean... every time I log back in she's dropped somewhere randomly on a path, presumably outside the bounds of the replaceable "block" she was situated in.

It's not a matter of whether the gathered trees regenerate or not. The hideaway is permanently torn down from being thick with trees to a bland open space full of buildings, whether you want it or not.

And if a game sets me the goal of looking after animals, then I expect to be putting them in a place that meets their needs. The pen could so easily have trees, a stable, a pond and a rock pile for the coblyns, but we just dump them all on featureless grass and feed them cabbages.
