Be that as it may, the point I was attempting (in my 10 minutes between getting
up and leaving for work) was that a raze should not be necessary just to move
your HQ. "Yep, looks like its time to burn the Town Hall again."

Deconstruction should be incredibly fast if you don't care about getting any
materials back; if you actually try to preserve the materials used in the
construction than you're not 'razing' it in any case.
