i also believe the making of trainers should have priority over soldiers. you normally need only a trainer or two, while you need dozens of soldiers. and in general, startiing to train soldiers is better than having one more level 0 soldier.
giving two starting trainers would not fix the problem: one may want to make a second training site as his economy grows (1 colosseum + 2 training sites = 3 trainers needed), and it wiilll never get filled as every single set of spear and helmet would become a soldier that is sent to the colosseum.
