I noticed that too, all the other animals we saw had two "dongles", perhaps super smurfs suffer from a generic "half upper body appendages" mutation that just happens to make them look a lot more terran than the other life forms.

RE:Sphalerite
you can also use the reserve barrels option to reserve barrels for booze production without fiddling with individual stockpiles.

I would rather talk about the controversial elements removed from DF.

Namely, the ability to mod intelligent species to be butcherable to use their skin for leather and meat for food. At the same time elves were given an ethic allowing them to eat intelligent species. In v38c I had modded dwarves to be brutal, butchering, skinning and eating goblins and elves. I can no longer do this effectively.

There are ways to make things butcher-able, but the hides can not be tanned, nor can the meat be cooked or eaten. Oddly enough this only applies to fortress dwarves, I can import all the elf leather and dwarf meat I want (goblins remain an elusive target).

We battle ants every year.  The little ant poison thingies + spraying raid along every place where they could conceivably be slipping in seems to work fairly well.

seriously, you don't need poison for ants. The dry rice trick really works.

smurfs, but they never counted on them having pointy sticks.

There are ways to make armor transparent.

Windows are armor.

not if your enemies have lasers.

the end of a bull whip breaks the sound barrier.

IIRC hunters get a trinket for each animal kill.
