Well, first, you have to clean all the file debris out of the "auto-added" subhoods with templates. This means youhave to clear all the extraneous text strings, SDSCs, etc. Basically, garbage which is left over from templates. To do this, create a BLANK subhood, then compare it to one of the "dirty" subhoods, and delete everything which is not supposed to be there. Then, copy the lot descriptor and lot descriptor strings from the now cleansed "Hobby" autosubhood into the blank subhood, and perform terrain surgery. Go to the subhood and use the Loadlot and changelotzoning cheats to edit the Hobby lots. When you have completed the editation, quit, go to your neighborhood, and manually remove the Dummy Suburb: Don't delete in-game. You can save this stub-suburb for later if you want to re-edit.

I did most of that, except without the dummy suburb. I used a sim to get to the lot and edit it. It's still kind of annoying, because you have to have a sim who has gotten the card to do so. It's unfortunate that we can't use LoadLot from the main 'hood to get into a lot from a sub 'hood. I've done the Fitness lot so far, and started on the Nature lot. Building the Nature lot is part of my 'hood's story, so I'm doing it in stages. More work. Meh.

Do my eyes deceive me or did I read in this thread that in the game as it left EA, when I take my predestined sport Sim to the sports park, she doesn't actually build enthusiasm for sport while she's using the stuff there???

This is, in fact, the case, yes.  Continued comm lot stupidity which has existed since Base -- playing chess at home built logic, but playing all day at the local park did nothing.  Why would hobbies be any different (just because EA has had years to fix this and never does)?

Oh dear, what's the point of having "special" hobby lot then, if Sims can't even build enthusiasm in it? *Headdesk* It's about as useless as runway lots for H&M.
Comm-skilling should really have been integrated into the core game.

My comm skilling does not seem to be working.  I have sims that I am positive are townies and when they use items that skill they do not get either the progress bar nor the enthusiasm symbol.  Does this not work on home lots anymore?

Also I'm not sure where to put this comment so I will put it here.  I have been getting this want "Buy unnamed wantable object category 10100" and the slot is blank.  I had heard that this is a problem with either the LTW variety or Uni LTW's but I am not sure.  So I thought that I would just let you know.  Sorry if this is out of place, please don't tear me a new one. :-[

If you are using Pescado's hack to enable uni ltws, then you need to update it as Pescado has now fixed this glitch.  This hack is not included in the Director's Cut (as not everyone has the uni EP installed), but it is in the hacks directory.
