I'm sceptical about how much of a budget went into Seasons, but from what I see, even with flat snow, I don't think winter has been 'destroyed'.
I feel like more could have been done to make snow look deep, but I think that it's got more to do with engine - ie your lot is closed therefore snow only affects your lot and this could end up looking really weird at the edges. Sims 4 has a flat world. People would complain either way so the devs took the path of least resistance. They should have done so much more than just this 'standing on white' thing though.
Also, i feel like, I don't want to wait to make snowmen. As if I don't have to wait to make snowmen enough as it is.
I feel like some people are being way too optimistic about this "Maybe we haven't seen everything" thing though. I used to be like that and got made a fool of by EA. This trailer showed gameplay. Why wouldn't it show snow depth? Look at the guy shovelling snow. The snow just 'appears' on his shovel. It's not taken from anywhere and the ground is white before and after it is taken.
As for fixing, well, there's a HUGE difference between fixing a bad texture for one object and fixing the snow depth for the entire World during a whole season.
