Does that mean that we should consider the "Deleting, Creating, and Generating Townies" tutorial by Nec no longer operative?
The deleting part is still ok; it's the part that's supposed to generate all the new townies at once that's broken.
No, the deleting part is broken too. See above post. :P

DAC does a VERY incomplete job, leaving dangling SDSCs and even SWAFs everywhere. After you use it, you have to go to SimPE and finish the job by deleting all SDSCs and SWAFs.
Is this a problem even with brand new neighborhoods that have just been created?
(Maybe I'd already know the answer to that if I was familiar with what SDSCs and SWAFs are...but I'm quickly out of my depth here. Which is why I am mourning the loss of the tutorial's usefulness.)

Is a DAC necessary for each neighborhood, or can you use the townies that come with it safely? Frankly, I don't mind the townies that the game makes.
J. M. Pescado:
You can use the neighborhood as prestocked if you want, and don't mind that the townies will be the same familiar faces every time...which isn't really a problem if it's your first and only neighborhood and there aren't any familiar faces. Besides, familiar faces give everyone a common frame of reference. When I talk about Komei, everyone knows I mean *THE* Komei, not one of the many random Komeis. And when I talk about Emma's boyfriend, everyone knows who I mean.
kutto:
(Un)Fortunately, I primarily play Strangetown, and have never seen Komei first-hand. I've heard numerous stories, though.
