That's totally unit stacking in disguise. Which isn't necessarily bad. In fact, it's probably good. What fundamentally makes 1upt so problematic is that army sizes cannot grow in line with increasing city productivity.

I think you would see almost exactly the same picture in Civ4 the bigger the max and the lower used capacity -> smaller food box. the housing capacity is a soft cap. from here.

It's almost like these fools want to bring out more Civ4 mojo. Don't they know that depth ∝ popularity?
