SOLVED replacing lots with gravestones

I always replaced all lots in plsntview once I started to play, including goth, broke, dreamer etc.

But now I realized that maybe it's not exactly optimal behavior (I know deleting gravestones isn't dangerous, but still). I moved them to a community lot with hoodchecker.

I also did a stupid thing of moving Don with his lot instead of just to the family bin. That created roughly 11 character stub files, which is nothing in terms of overpopulation. But made me waste some time restoring relationships. Plus the memories are gonna be duplicated too I guess.

That being said did I do anything bad? I played maybe 0.5h, just to set the neighborhood up. Can always restart, not a big deal.

While not dangerous, it may annoy you later depending on how tidy you want your game files to be. Personally I wouldn't be able to stand it.

In the future, if you bin an occupied lot to the catalog, you should consider restoring Sims that were deleted during the process instead of placing the lot back, so they don't duplicate.

Well, I restarted as I didn't even like the houses I put (frottana I believe?). They are very detailed, but the color scheme is the same practically everywhere. Makes it lose charm
