Exactly. Honestly I think that when they conceived this idea they just hadn't realised the negative impact that some AW levelling and expansions would have on players. Surely, once they come to terms with that they will realise they need to fix it. There's no point at all if certain AWs become 100% useless. Whether it's the existing players or the new generation advising each other to only build particular Wonders, and only then if they're completely sure what they're doing.Why advance any further, why upgrade my Wonders at all?
I am thinking the same as you that I wouldn't consider advancing through the storyline any further now. I am only levelling AWs that have a specific military purpose that I am fairly confident will beat the penalty.
