If you did all your exploratory mining quarry-style outside your fort, wouldn't you be (theoretically) safer from the HFS?

Only if they're not fliers. If they're fliers they'll just fly out of the pit and path to the fortress anyway, which might be worse, especially if they're flaming clowns. Forest fires are not fun when they're not caused by you.

Initially I thought this had something to do with high fructose corn syrup.  Like, the dorfs had started using it in place of dwarven sugar, and now they were all fat.  Of course, that might be part of an evil clown plot as well...

Never broken into the clown lair myself...if I did, I'd make sure to have several choke points filled with traps between me and any potential clown invasion.

That would successfully do absolutely nothing. Clowns [trAPAVOID].

The chokepoints might help, mind you, but only if you also had a sizable military capable of dealing with them. And !!Clowns!! are so incredibly uncool that they are by far the most dangerous creatures in the game. Octoclowns and Amphibiclowns are significantly less dangerous, but still difficult.

Except for their [trAPAVOID].

Also, the OP ravealed earlier that his pits had vermin and mud and water. Hence, he has a frog infestation. They don't fly. He's safe.

I actually though this had to do with a dwarf using a well as a toilet, and the feces broke through the adamantine resovoir's floor into HFS.
