Great :) I should point out that what you call "blocks", sdna calls "links". Hope it helps.

Thanks for the extended answer. Beautiful 3rd picture btw. Sounds like more work than I'd been thinking though!

(And assume that either I have elevation data for buildings, or I don't care about them!)

comment Sum raster data visible from given point, by proportion of view
You are both right; I am thinking of solid angles, obviously excluding the sky and as you say the cell beneath (hadn't thought of that). But then normalizing to proportions anyway. To give a result like "from point x, we can see 70% buildings and 30% fields".

comment GEOS: how to access Noder functionality through the C API
I have found out that if you union or intersect a line geometry with itself, it comes back noded. But without any control over the noding algorithm.

comment Reading shapefile tolerance in python
As an aside why would anyone store coordinates in doubles? Doesn't that mean precision varies depending on position?

comment What are arc's guarantees on data precision, XYTolerance (i) when displaying (ii) in arcpy?
Sounds plausible, but see my update - I managed to create features smaller than XYTolerance and they weren't displayed as identical

comment Reading environment variables in arcpy
Ok... but how to retrieve XYTolerance from the script dialog box? Which workspace does that live in?
