Describe the solution
SWIMS flag does slow down monsters in land, which is a balance discussion for another day, but I't doesnt really make sense for this terrestian creatures to have it.

Seriously? If it actually does, please document this if you can. I was not aware of that.

Yeah if you check monster::calc_movecost swimming monsters pay the full movecost of their current map tile and the full cost of their destination tile when moving. Normal monsters just pay half of each.
I'm actually not sure if this is the intended behavior or not. It's certainly not documented.

It seems not to be, frankly, given the documentation only says they're supposed to treat water as a 50 movecost terrain. Does it at least do as advertised?

If I understand this correctly. For tiles without SWIMMABLE flag, the total move_cost is equal to:
move_cost = 0 + 50 * here.move_cost( f ) + movecost + 50 * here.move_cost( t )
And if it didn't have a SWIMS flag, then:

P.S. Do we have furniture with the SWIMMABLE flag?
