But also, what about partial genes like ones in Ebena Kurantos? I feel that it would be useful to an extent for species like Glacia Alsaltos even though the Fire gene is hidden, but would be tedious to track research goal for species like Ebena Kurantos with lots of genes that usually remain hidden (e.g. only 24 out of 27 possible gene combos for Horns are "no horns", and that's just the Horns gene). I feel that for them, grouping the genes into a category such as "no horns" to represent all 24 genes would be better instead of making 24 different research goals, for example.
Glad to know refactoring is still being done, and keep up the good work to everyone involved, they're all awesome! My favorite is the routing part, it is blessed even though I do not go to Creature Notes often.
If you have a creature with the right genes but the wrong gender, it will still indicate that a matching creature has been obtained by giving it a yellow highlighting and showing it as a partial match.
I tested those things a bit to see that they work as so, but perhaps it's my poor way to communicate and highlight points. My main critique on the new goals feature is that it may not work for some species if you don't want all the genes to be the very exact same.
How would you find research goals for just a maneless blue Ebena Kuranto?

From those 3 example research goals, appearance-wise they all show the same sprite. But just one different hidden gene would result in no matches at all, which I wish was a partial match instead.
Example visualization:
Genes: Body:aaBBcc, Marking:aaBbCC, Feet:AaBBCC, Pinto:aaBBCC, Leopard:AaBbCc, Face:AAbbCc, Mane:aabbcc, Horns:aabbCc, Wings:AABbcc
will not match with
Genes: Body:aaBBcc, Marking:aaBBCc, Feet:AABBCC, Pinto:AABBCc, Leopard:AABBCc, Face:AABBCC, Mane:aabbcc, Horns:AABBCC, Wings:AABBCC
even though they both show the same, or even
Genes: Body:aaBBcc, Marking:AABBCC, Feet:AABBCC, Pinto:AABBCc, Leopard:AABBCc, Face:AABBCC, Mane:aabbcc, Horns:AABBCC, Wings:AABBCC
where every other gene is different except for Body and Mane.
