Creatures forced to save are targets.

To make it stronger it should have instead say:

While not official ruling per se, the Dev intended to have creature takes 2d4 fire damage regardless of size.

My understanding is that the Dwarf using Stonecunning's Tremorsense can pinpoint the location of creatures and moving objects within 60 feet that are in contact with the same stone surface.

Some ways to reduce powergaming could resort to some things like stats roll 3d6, set slow Milestone level progression, ban Multiclassing, Ability Score increase and Feats, limit Magic Items and spell components availability, halve full caster spell slots, remove Hit Dice healing, use Variant...

Anything on half-species or it's silence radio?

Are Villainous Class Options printed back as is? If not what are exactly the changes?

Even wielding a weapon in a way contrary to its design doesn't count as another classified category but as an improvised weapon instead, not changing wether it's Melee or Ranged weapon in the first palce.

It's clear what Sneak Attack says, it says Ranged weapon, not Range weapon.

A spear is never a ranged weapon regardless of how you attack with it.
