Deconstruct

I've seen similar suggestions but couldn't find a recent one...

It would be a new command, similar to destroy, but taking a lot more of time to complete (like 3 times more)
Instead of completely vanquishing the items, you would get some of the materials back. Maybe half of every material - or maybe just one type of material (for example, the new chair/tables would yield only the leather back, not the wood)

There could also be a slight quality reduction to prevent a complete recycle and be used only as building convenience

No big deal, It just feels wrong that destroying stuff makes all the materials completely disappear. What do we use, antimatter?

Yeah, a lot of other games have it and I wish we did too, I know Jorb has answered this one before with a reason why we can't, or don't, but tbh I forget what it was .... but it does seem a shame to lose all those materials when you need to rectify a mistake or upgrade builds.

Yeah

Another thing that would be cool: a "reform" option to allow us to change the colors of a building/furniture/etc without having to destroy/rebuild the whole thing. It would be okay to lose the former items, no worries, but just allow us to swap them for new ones...

For example: Let's say I have a spruce thatched Stone Mansion, why do I have to take it down to change the thatching to barley straw? It's perfectly reasonable to be able to just remove the spruce thatching and place straw

yeah, I agree ... Jorb are you listening? ...
