What do you mean by having terrain defined by magic sites? Why not have it determined by terrain?

Well a few posts ago, I mentioned that the new list of sites would be heavily terrain dependent. So the terrain types would be analogous to different types of celestial bodies, rather than types of ecosystems as currently used. Thus, within the range of terrain types that habitable worlds can use (forest, grassland, default), one would use custom sites to delineate a particular region as something more interesting than "default".
