Please fix the automatic flattening of Terrain when a Object is placed

I'm currently building a new Mandrill-Enclosure and I thought it would be a great Idea to place the Feeding-Platform on a big flat Rock in Front of the Fence but the Terrain gets automatically flattened every Time I place the Feeding-Platform on the Rock (the Option to automatically flat the Terrain is deactivated)
 
I think some objects flatten the surrounding terrain because the accompanying animations for them need a flat area to work. (The rubbing pad makes a huge flat area for example, which is annoying)
That's just my guess though, not 100% sure.
 
I would wish for it as well! It's really anoying. My habitats look great but after a time I have to change the toys and I always have to make sure the new ones are really on that flat area to not destroy anything.

@Dinocanid: Well, I can definitely change the smooth the terrain, etc. directly around the item and my animals still use them, so I don't know if its really necessary :)

I think I did something similar in the Past with the same Object and it didn't happen so I think maybe it could be a Bug

I think I'm with Dino on this. This is probably the reason.
