Proposal: Make Capacity Count

Add the following as a new fourth paragraph to the rule Location:
A Location may never have more Villagers in that Location than its Capacity. If a Location is set as the Location of more Villagers than its Capacity then it is Over Capacity. A Villager may not move to a Location that is Over Capacity. Whenever a Location is Over Capacity, any Villager may remove Villagers from that Location, in order from the most recent arrivee, until it is no longer Over Capacity. Villagers thus removed have their Location Set to the first available location by the following heuristic: first, the closest (by Length of Route) non-Outdoor Location that would not be Over Capacity following such a move; second, the closest (by Length of Route) Outdoor Location that would not be Over Capacity following such a move; third, the Village Square.
I think there should be a bonus to Roughhousing against late arrivals, as an alternative to this; I’ll propose it once the current huddling kerfuffle shakes out.
Capacity eventually has to do something IMO, even if this might not be the best way of dealing with it.

Kicking everyone out into the snow upon enactment except for yourself, Lendunistus, Darknight and SingularByte (assuming you all sit tight) also seems harsh.
