I generally like "weirder" things(My next image is inspired by Lovecraft)  and
the text.. itt's an old SF concept, and I've read several novels discussing
it(sorry, no titles in my mind now) but it is a classic that always work. The
reason I didn't complain that all the trees were "the same" and that the  isles
didn't  look randomed enough was this concept in the text.

Yes I guess this idea is probably pretty common but just for your
information, I made it up completely and never saw/heard/knew about it
before.
Like we say in hebrew, "kivanti ledaat gedolim" - rough unliteral
translation - "I have thought like the great" which means that I thought
of something that the great people have thought of, without knowing
about it first.
