So what's the point of alleys now that sneaking missions exist?

I just came back to the game after a year hiatus, and I'm thrilled they finally actually added mechanics rather than just doing endless bug and balance patches that somehow break every mod with every patch. I discovered the sneaking tutorial, and then found out that basically every stealth kill or every other stealth kill gives a level of roguery. (5 focus points) now I'm wondering what's the point of alleys anymore. They were never particularly good, but at least there was an argument to be made that they increased roguery. But now that I can just go farm hideout stealth missions, earn way more money, keep my companions in my party, and not gain crime in the process, I'm wondering what purpose alleys serve anymore?

Outpost/Village/Settlement building should’ve been a thing by now…

I know, beating a dead horse and I’m glad we are getting naval combat along with the mods that improve the game as official additions. But Viking Conquest had buildable settlements, we should be able to do so too, especially involving raiding.

The Nords would do so well setting up war-ports along the coasts. Maybe they spawn in “patrols” of their own that raid and sack villages and caravans that pass through the area as a form of passive income for the owner. Or an Empire lord builds a fortress along their borders as a first line of defense, gradually improving their defenses over time.

All settlements would have upgrades that improve their defenses, storage, garrisons, and even provide unique abilities like building a coastal port to build ships in as well as dock, stone walls creating a nee castle, or settling veteran soldiers in your army to create something similar to Roman Veteran colonies which make hiring troops cheaper and grant you a small town, with the expectation that soldiers you hire will occasionally disband and settle in these colonies after a period of their service is up if you don’t renew their contracts.

There’s so much potential, especially of they just make a simplified version of the terrain/building editors so we could even create our own towns/villages from scratch in the already existing battle maps of the area.
