Hopelessly wrong. The whole point of Order is its ability to settle new cities that will provide quick return on their investment even well into the late game. Freedom is terrible for settling late cities by comparison.
Also, everybody seems to miss that the main benefit of Worker's Faculties is not the +25% science but rather the double-speed Factory construction.
Hopelessly wrong.
1. Freedom needs very few factory. And it doesn't even need them fast. That benefit is only good for order, freedom doesn't miss it.
2. Settling after Ideology is in general a bad idea. Being able to run all specialists and gain a lot of happiness doing that is very good for lagging cities. Admittedly though Order has Skyscrapers which helps a lot lagging cities.
3. Secularism benefit wide empire a lot. Freedom synergizes better with secularism.
