I just thought that you could calculate if a certain "standing order"-script runs the fort or parts of its economy stable for the next x years thought doing that is on a second look pretty hard - furthermore i said:

a script-language would be perfect for stuff like civ-behavior   NPC-settlement layouts etc.

thus one (or more) of that scripts could take over the rest of the fort development. The fractal design of the current Mountain-homes for example could be a rather simple script - if you make that script flexible enough to take stuff into account that was build by the player you could "grow" a fort after abandon to some extend.   

It depends partwise on how flexible the scripts are themselves - if they can run with parameters like available dwarfs etc.

edit:also what urist said.
