I'm curious about certain WIP features, and can't understand if they do belong in the game.

With what the game currently is - no, not its beta state, but the gameplay itself, including things such events and the size of the map - are some of these features necessary? Such as, portable cooking plate - there is simply no need to carry one with you (or keeping it somewhere on the map), as getting to the base takes an incredible short time, even if you travel from the border of the map, on foot. And walls - can't grasp why this would be needed, besides possible addition of swarms of attacking enemies, whom you would build a protective layer of walls against.

Walls aren't just for practical reasons, they are primarily used by a bunch of the community for decoration, could be expanding existing things like adding onto the desk or even making an entirely new structure somewhere out in the world.
You do need to remember this is also a sandbox game where you have the freedom to decorate your base, things like this don't necessarily need an obvious practical reason to exist.

The hot plate was added before the microwave could properly cook raw food and before any of the other ways to cook food were added, so it is kind of obsolete at this point as everything else is better than it,  but they also can't really just remove it now because it is a feature that some people use.

With all the weapons being worked on, to me - it seems that walls are mostly for building defensive bases.

I just hope that game would continue to retain its eerie horror spacey creatures style, and not turn into a survival game (with all of these fishing, cooking, chopping trees, farming plants, farming honey, etc features).

It will keep the horror style, but even the official wiki advertises it as an "ambient horror survival game" so this is definitely intentional.
