"uhhh. Nice dragon?"

I'm new to succession forts in general, yes, but do all forts designed by multiple overseers inevitably degenerate into a body-filled labyrinth of chaos and despair like this? Or is this just a Battlefailed thing?

There isn't much middle ground between killed-by-dragon and never-seen-by-dragon.

I'm surprised nobody has said something to the effect of:

"Just a moment, guys, I need to pull this lever!"

Please don't shitpost, it lowers the quality of discourse
Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

I'm sure more than one fort met this sort of end because that guy was on the opposite side of the fort.

Fortifications for the final block into the magma work just as well and don't squander a perfectly good pick.
Unlike cheesemakers, unnecessarily burning picks is unethical.

Dwarf fortress in 50 words: You start with seven alcoholic, manic-depressive dwarves. You build a fortress in the wilderness where EVERYTHING tries to kill you, including your own dwarves. Usually, your chief imports are immigrants, beer, and optimism. Your chief exports are misery, limestone violins, forest fires, elf tallow soap, and carved kitten bone.
