So I went and checked and it is actually 141z levels down, I'll make it work, probably just make a burrow for a select few dwarves and call it good.

Don't forget to carve a living area and food stockpile there. Or just relocate already, leaving a completely functional, but empty, fortress behind near the filthy surface. Or clear-cut your map, get loads of coal and make hippies cry.

My whole game I haven't gotten a single diplomat or noble, so I can clear cut the whole map and do nothing it, and it wouldn't bother me a bit at this point.

TBH, that's probably by far the easiest option. It'll save a hell of a lot of time, and you'll still have the furniture intact once you tear it up if you're short on logs as I tend to be.
The only downside is a lack of fresh water down there. And due to pesky water pressure, you can't just redirect the river down there without creating a fountain. I mean, I once had a well that worked fine until I futzed with the pressure in the brook to drown the elven caravan in the spring, upon which it spurted water everywhere.
And the trading caravans. Either a long haul with the goods, a long wait for the caravans to get down the entry ramp, or no trading at all.
