Also, I'm still a proponent of changing Republic's effect, or at least removing the ability for Great People to add 1 Food to cities. It causes it to be the single best civic for the vast majority of long term games. Arabia, Argentina, Brazil, the Byzantines, Canada, Carthage, the Netherlands, England, Ethiopia, Greece, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, the Khmer, Korea, Maya, Morocco, Turkey, Polynesia, Portugal, Rome, Thailand, and the Viking all do far better in long games with Republic than they do with Democracy, let alone the other civics.
Like, I get that Republic is designed to be best for any civ with a coastal capital, but maybe there should be an incentive to swap off it and to Democracy beyond a tiny +5 stability. Being able to effectively double your excess food is just absolutely insane.
