Lifestyles: how's your experience?

Lifestyles are definitely bugged in the sense that the game will assign a sim more than 3 lifestyles. And removing them only removes them from the sim info panel, it's still listed as active under the lifestyles button.
Personally, I know I'll turn them off in any further saves. They have too much impact on a sim's mood if you ask me (I'm the micomanaging control freak type of watcher).
While I appreciate the idea, it's too dominant in gameplay. Besides, it most of the time doesn't make sense.
I think it would have been more enjoyable if they had been interests, activities that sims naturally gravitate towards. Not something they crave so badly it ruins their whole day.

This is really the issue, the moodlets are too strong. My Sim can love the outdoors and skiiing, but not to the point she dislikes everything else. The way it’s currently implemented is causing obsessions not lifestyles.
