No one is forcing you to build smooth stone floors. Leave the floors natural or make them out of something else. Or, you know, tell us what you're actually talking about.

Why settle for smooth stone? Get that additional beauty and go for gold tile!

and you can place other  flooring over the smoothed stone and get the smoothed stone PLUS the second flooring benefits

The age old complaint about smoothed stone floors have the 3 beauty while most of the other floors only have 2 beauty or less.

In alpha 12 with the room stats, value is also important. Smoothed stoned floors add zero value.

That's... not how that works?

no stacking bonuses on floors, they replace.

I did read something about floors existing in 2 layers, which is why you can remove certain floors.
I haven't noticed any results of stacking though, I think only the top layer counts.

It wouldn't make sense for colonists to think that smoothed stone floor is beautiful when there's hardwood on top of it.

Ever seen a wooden floor lain on uneven floor? Looks horrible.
Besides, common sense usually has little to do with gameplay balancing.

someone already posted the relevant issue here.

Smooth stone is not 100% better.

If room IMPRESSIVENESS is the goal, impressiveness takes value into account...smooth stone is 3 beauty and 0 value....carpet is 2 beauty with some value.

There's floor, and there's terrain. Flooring can always be pulled up to reveal the terrain, and terrain cannot be changed. Terrain only matters if there's no flooring on top of it.

Good to know, does smoothed stone count as floor or terrain?

you can remove flooring, but you can not remove smoothed stone, it is terrain.
