Ah yeah, I meant to follow-up on the boxed-in comment that OD made earlier. yes, despite some jungly stuff on the vicinity, this is very good land. Plenty of room for cities, and some good early cities to be had.
At this point, one could go either way on the slavery switch/settler whip. In one respect, it does show OD the power of whipping where he sees that the settler is at almost a max point for OF for the 2pop whip (67/100H).. Likewise, that timing of the worker chop is perfect to combine with the OF of the whip for fast new worker.
Conversely, slow-build settler and switch to slavery as it moves saves anarchy in the new city. A new 4>2 worker whip can go into a new settler. The question is the chop as it would finish the last turn of the settler build. I guess you could chop into the settler with OF next turn into new settler or new worker (if total hammers less than or = 29H into worker.)
Peaceful route is certainly fine, although I do think Monty is closer than one would think. If peaceful route though, I'd probably just go straight to Alpha after Writing on this level.
