ZanithOneDoesn't change a thing: the core gameplay loop still requires a specific combination of people + daytime + room to advance a plotline, all dictated solely by RNG, and you just don't notice it as much if you e.g. start a new playthrough as you will have a lot of open plotlines that advance at a rapid pace.
The fix is already present to some degree, but rather half-assed: you can tell some girls to move to a specific room, but for some reason that doesn't apply to all girls, nor all rooms, nor can you move 2 girls into the same room that way and it also doesn't take into account the daytime, e.g. telling a girl to move into the kitchen in the afternoon even though it's currently morning.
Doing it that way enables the end-user to easily easily force the advancement of plotlines while staying true to the tone and themes of the game.
