Update 3 suggestion: Keep old water tank designs for Folktails, give the new designs for IronTeeth
IronTeeth are supposed to be all about efficiency and the more square and compact designs newly introduced in U3 fit them perfectly. There is barely any difference between the factions right now and this is the perfect time to make bigger changes. Right now everyone is used to the old designs but it'll be hard to backtrack if you change everyone to the new designs and then try to change later.
Admittedly I'm a bit biased and prefer the old designs and think the square ones are too boring. However, having different small and medium liquid storage buildings would make the factions more different with relatively minor costs. It might be seen as unfair for folktails to have worse liquid storages but if the cost is reduced by a log or two and if the largest tanks are the same i think it will be fine. It will let the early game require different thinking/placement of buildings, give each faction a more unique identity, AND keep them the same in late game. Its a win win win.

RexatraSmart idea. I can vibe with it. Doubt it will happen though. The devs made new tanks for a reason

Grey Kyliayou might be right, but its an easy way to make the differences between the factions they said they wanted to create. Ironteeth are said to be efficient and workers of metal while folktails are to be respectful of nature and good farmers. A counter to this would be to make FT have different farms or foresters for more efficient water storage.
An example could be for FT to add a new 'large farm' or even change thier base farm to a 3x3x2 farm (i imagine the cliche big red barn) that houses 3 workers and can store up to 200 of each food instead of the base 50. Then take the normal farm model of IT and make the roof grey. Instant diversity that plays into what they are supposed to be different aka farming specialist vs space efficiency. I may even make that a suggestion after this for its own topic if it doesnt exist.
