Playing a Diety Babylon game and I snuck this Wonder in because noone seemed to build it.
So far I've popped
4 artists
2 musicians
5 writers
12 scientists
3 prophets
4 engineers
1 general planted
So that is a total of 30 great people for 3000 gold total, it really has been a gift that keeps on giving especially since many early wonders only have very temporary effects (i mean who notices the Parthenon in the late game...)
It's most helpful I've found in allowing you to upgrade units or buy tiles, the things you hate spending gold on.
And as for purchasing units/ buildings Commerce and Big Ben stretches the value of that gold even further!
