I mine it out if mining it wouldn't interfere with my architecture, wait for my dwarves to start moving it to my ore stockpile closer to my workshops, then smelt it.

Nothing makes me rage more than when I think 'Oh, I'll use this place here for X' and as soon as I break the wall there's this scattered patchwork of little bits of valuable ores and gems. :(
Same here. It's especially bad most of a huge throneroom mined out and you hit a gem cluster. Even more so when my own personal philosophy is to leave no ore, gem, or rare stone unmined.

You think the dwarves mind having an asymmetrical room design when there's ore to be had? Just go with it. Incorporate the windings into your room design, if possible.

Why mine veins when you can just mine everything?

With [SLOW_LEARNER], dwarves probably don't sit around and talk anymore. They just stand in the same corner altogether, staring at each other, sticking their bearded lips out trying to make sounds. And giggling when someone actually says a whole word.
