I don't care about beaker bonuses - too small to worry about at the moment.
We pretty much know that we are leading the pack - I just don't want others to know it without spending some C&D energy. Sure - score isn't much (re leading) - but it is an indicator.
BTW - Is it possible for the better C&D teams to know that something is up with our score decrease (2 pop whip) followed by power increase from the spear?

That is a fair comment - do we have enough gold to finish Priesthood in a single burst?
I have finally decided to put down some cash and register a website. It is www.ruffhi.com. Now I remain free to move the hosting options without having to change the name of the site.

We can, but I think you guys are overestimating the impact this tech swapping has. Comparing the two:
No changes: Fishing (T54) -> Priesthood (T56)
Proposed change: Priesthood (T55) -> Fishing (T56)
I mean - I'll change it if you guys want me to do so. Don't really see the point though.

No, I don't think we should change.

I'm pretty sure all that would do is alert other teams that we are fine with swapping techs to manipulate score/mask tech ability. I say just leave it alone.

On T56 we will have 30H invested in the settler, so it will be a 3-pop whip, for 30 total overflow (20 from whip and 10 from the T56 production). I assume we will send that to a granary.
Furthermore, I consider that forum views should be fluid in width

Turn is about to roll I think, because the Germans are logged in.

Nope, it rolled.
Despite the whips, we got a big score increase this turn. The only other score increases were 2 and 3 points, so I think we can conclude without logging in that 'Henge is still available.
