Just wanted to add my thoughts on this topic here again, too.
(Sorry, for not commenting so long anymore - just didn't realized that there was an active discussion after my last comment again: I did not get e-mails from launchpad although I (at least I thought I did) subscribed to this topic... :-( )
Anyway, I don't understand one point:
why this small (in my opinion) illogical thing is so important for balancing?
It is not a big disadvantage for the Empire tribe as you can easily keep also the smaller buildings. I think it is just bothersome, unnecessary and most important illogical - and therefore also very hard to understand for new players. Therefore I think this should be changed to be consistent again.
And if this should really influence the balancing then it should still be fixed and the balancing should be done in a more logical way (e. g. extending the producing time of meals/rations for the Empire). But I still don't think that this change would have a real influence on the balancing system anyway.
