Thank you for your replies. I too, found that obsidian casting did not change the soil layer from what it was originally. Due to it being aboveground now I could't grow cave moss, so had to abandon my ideas for an orchard. I abandoned the fortress as well. Everyone was "harrowed by the nightmare that is their life" and migrants were arriving, "knowing the place would be their tomb". Most of my citizens were in hospital unable to perform tasks and the fortress was covered with dead bodies and mess. Everything ended up going pretty badly. Guess I really need to keep on top of those moods.

I have gened a new world with good sites that hopefully will do better.

Regarding obsidianizing then digging away for soil: That in my experience results in floor made of biome layer materials at  z-level. Soil in soil layers or air, stone in stone layers (similar to how digging ramps in SMR used to produce i.e. diorite ramps rather than smr ramp).

Thanks for testing wierd.

Any time.  It's been a while since I did science!
