It was a bit of a rhetorical question... If a building is a single target
(or even if its structure is a single target, with doors etc. being
separate ones) then you can hit the whole of it with a single-target
spell, even though your area of effect can be much larger this way than
with any area-effect spell.

True. Could be a good way of getting them out of the way :)

The trouble with Detect (Object) spells is that this isn't AD&D, where you
can learn a spell when you think you'll need it (or Ars Magica, which
allows you yo improvise a spell's effects). Having a Detect Latest Ares
Prototype Gizmo spell is useful for a single run, but that's it...
