Do you visit the hobby lots? Are they useful?

Otherwise it will be just the maven (who, incidentally, isn't even necessarily into the hobby he's in charge of!)
*facepalms*
How is it possible that there's even a tiny corner of my being that hadn't already assumed something so ass would naturally be the case?

Ok, mild derailing, still on the subject of hobby lots. I've just installed FT but not yet played it. The post on empty templates warns me not to delete the lots while I'm sorting things out because those are the hobby lots. But, from what I've read, I don't want them! I don't even want prettier versions! So, can I just delete them? ;_; Will this also have the pleasant side effect of preventing the hobby-people from spawning? (All I want from this EP is the damn toddler table :()

You'll need to live with the default hobby lots, at least for your 'hoods to be updated for the new EP, and preferably until you have taken a sim to visit each lot. Check out leaths's post in Zazazu's Peasantry thread on editing hobby lots.

Using a clean template, a hobby maven will only spawn when a sim gets to a certain level of hobby enthusiasm. I feel like I heard about a "no enthusiasm at all" hack somewhere, which might prevent them spawning indefinitely. But my search skills are failing me. Has anyone else heard about it, or is that just my imagination again?

True, but leath's post did not cover simply deleting the hobby lots.  leath suggested that the lots could be edited and replaced, but the result would be more attractive sekrit hobby lots, not no hobby lots at all.  Not sure what would happen if you simply remove them.  The game might respawn them for the next sim who reaches the required enthusiasm level.

You'll seriously install a whole EP just for 1 object it contains? :-\ Not trying to be judgmental here, just curious.
