one thing that have bothered me for some time now is why we are can't add buildings in the arena.

for example having minecarts in the arena could be useful if you do not fully understand how they work and want to test a design first or just have them as obstacles in fights.

myself i don't really any reason why not to add these things. what do you guys think?

I agree. It's a very good idea.

Would be neat an extra category of thing to plant into the arena, or really all of abilities of fortress and adventure mode on top of the arena tools for spawning things

Minecarts are in the arena.
Screw pumps or other buildings aren't really needed, though. They aren't moddable, and figuring out how to use them is part of the learning experience in fortress mode.

Adding minecart tracks, traps, and stuff like that would be great. Not sure why screw pumps are mentioned, though...

I'd sometimes like to be able to design and build a model of sort to test some ideas before putting it into my fort, or just to see if it works the way I expects it to. I don't mind doing a throwaway embarks, but it'd be nice to do it much faster in arena with less sloppy leftovers.

Ah, I see. Makes sense.
