I don't know how much this code has changed since 2018, but there was also D1660 that has discussions about edge cases. Most of those discussions was done via lobby chat, lobby pm, or in-game chat, so I don't remember how all of it went.

Thanks. I hadn't seen that conversation. It seems like the conversation didn't end up with a consensus.
The json files added in this commit might make it easier if we ever make it part of biome files. But as it is said in that diff it might be a bit too specific for the biomes for they might be used in mods without such civs. Maybe the farm animals could be though.

EDIT: One big advantages of Json files is they can be linted too for missing files.
