No "Favourite Animal" preference?
C'mon Maxis. Would've made so much more sense than a generic "animal enthusiast" trait (just because you like chickens doesn't mean you like foxes, and in fact you probably shouldn't like foxes, gi...

While I would like this, I would like more traits/aspirations in general on this topic. In particular, I think they missed out big time on a voidcritter tamer aspiration for kids. Plus I am not sure if anything other than CoL animals will be included in the new trait, but I hope so! I felt rather cheated that they didn't do the Sims 3 thing of stronger individual traits, but a weaker generalized one that applied to every animal.
But I could definitely see this eating a little too much into likes and dislikes. That is what, 18 likes/dislikes if my Sim is super opinionated?
In regards to your last point, I imagine if we get new likes/dislikes, they'll bump up the limit. We can have 20 right now, maybe they'd go to 25 or 30, depending on how many they add. That's what I'd do, anyway.
Hm. While I would like more allowed customization, too, I actually doubt they would do this. They mentioned that people responded well to likes and dislikes so they plan to expand the system in the future, but if they start increasing caps when they add new likes and dislikes they would have to keep doing it. I doubt they would obligate themselves like that.
For example, think about how many CAS assets are now in 4. When was the last time we were given more outfit slots? Hot and cold outfits, right? And even then, they were slots for a specific purpose. I certainly could use more slots on some Sims. A save outfit function would be even better, but they have no problem leaving caps. If you save all the premades of DLC packs, you're nearly at 200 Sims now when you start a game and I doubt they will rebalance those caps either.
But a very simple thing these likes and dislikes can do is affects relationships gains with animals. You like them? Friends faster. You do not? Good luck getting out of the red.
