What I try to say that I can not explain, because ways to do it are flexible and depends on situation.
What I can do is to demostrate by showing in process and explain my thinking along the way.
But what most of people missing and your argument shows that is undestanding that advantage RIGTH NOW more important then posible loss in remote future.
Let me again explain, why for col I rejected to research road and masonry and connect Marble befor researching Oracle tech. Because it would cost as additional 5 turns well + 8 turns masontry = 13 turns and after that we still can not build Oracle faster, because we need to know writing to get CoL.
So, I sucrifyed efficiency of building Oracle for speed.
If we get 350 beakers COL it will more then compensate the fact that we spend 150 shield on it, not 75 shields. So, I do not care about efficiency, because it will cause as waster time on this research line complitly. Then we will loose MACH MORE.
Wasting Missionary for our own towns or wait untill we have chance to spend 60? shield to build one ourself is just Take way to mach time. Busdddism will spread to other AI and AI spread there first religion fast themself.
If we get there first, especially into there capital, they will spread OUR religion for free, not competitive religion.
